B. Woodcroft, 1903","historicalContext":"This is an unidentified, perhaps, idealised view painted in the manner of the great, 17th- century, ‘classical’ landscapist Claude Lorrain (1600-82). The lone tree on the right, pushed back to the middle distance, is a typical ‘Claudian’ device which serves to open up the foreground whilst also guiding the eye to the distant landscape beyond. \r\n\r\nThe first two decades of the nineteenth century were a time of considerable ferment in British landscape painting which saw the emergence of John Constable (1776-1837) and J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851). Reinagle (1749-1833) was a near contemporary of both these artists and this ‘Claudian’ landscape, dated 1819, would have been seen as somewhat old-fashioned. The artist’s decision to paint in this style could reflect commercial considerations. Reinagle had a large family to support and may have sort to take advantage of the avid collecting of Claude Lorrain’s landscapes by English connoisseurs. \r\n\r\n\r\n","briefDescription":"Oil painting, 'Landscape', Philip Reinagle, 1819","bibliographicReferences":[],"production":"","productionType":{"text":"","id":""},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[],"contentOthers":[{"text":"Landscape","id":"x31100"}],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[],"partNumbers":["480-1903"],"accessionNumberNum":"480","accessionNumberPrefix":"","accessionYear":1903,"otherNumbers":[],"copyNumber":"","aspects":["WHOLE"],"assets":[],"recordModificationDate":"2026-02-10","recordCreationDate":"2007-02-27","availableToBook":false}}
