Large Oil Painting of an Orientalist Landscape by Prosper Marilhat
Located in London, GB
Large oil painting of an Orientalist landscape by Prosper Marilhat French, 19th Century Canvas: Height 34cm, width 63cm Frame: Height 52cm, width 81cm This superb landscape is by the French Orientalist painter Prosper Marilhat (1811-1847). Renowned for his Orientalist landscapes like this work in the Mayfair Gallery collection, Marilhat took inspiration from Egypt, which he visited in the early 1830s. His works can be found in several notable museums across the UK, including The Wallace Collection. His signature – ‘P. MARILHAT’ – can be found in the lower right corner. The painting is set within a tranquil Orientalist landscape, which is punctuated by towering palm trees and groups of figures in the right-hand corner. The figures ride or lead several camels, seeming to be coming to rest underneath the trees. The rest of the landscape is dominated by mountains and crags, populated by small temples. Particularly fine inclusions are the crescent moon, which signals the oncoming night, and the pair of birds that stand out against the blue sky. Marilhat’s use of colour in this painting is highly impressive. Whilst the land is bathed in warm evening light, the impending arrival of the night is indicated by the graduation of the sky, which ascends from dusky pinks and purples to a deep blue at the top of the canvas. The landscape is rendered in a painterly, almost sketched style, that foreshadows the oncoming Impressionist movement. Enclosed in a carved giltwood frame, the canvas sports a ‘Durand...

It could be argued that cave walls were the canvases for the world’s first landscape paintings, which depict and elevate natural scenery through art, but there is a richer history to consider.

The Netherlands was home to landscapes as a major theme in painting as early as the 1500s, and ink-on-silk paintings in China featured mountains and large bodies of water as far back as the third century. Greeks created vast wall paintings that depicted landscapes and grandiose garden scenes, while in the late 15th century and early 16th century, landscapes were increasingly the subject of watercolor works by the likes of Leonardo da Vinci and Fra Bartolomeo.

The popularity of religious paintings eventually declined altogether, and by the early 19th century, painters of classical landscapes took to painting out-of-doors (plein-air painting). Paintings of natural scenery were increasingly realistic but romanticized too. Into the 20th century, landscapes remained a major theme for many artists, and while the term “landscape painting” may call to mind images of lush, grassy fields and open seascapes, the genre is characterized by more variety, colors and diverse styles than you may think. Painters working in the photorealist style of landscape painting, for example, seek to create works so lifelike that you may confuse their paint for camera pixels. But if you’re shopping for art to outfit an important room, the work needs to be something with a bit of gravitas (and the right frame is important, too).

Adding a landscape painting to your home can introduce peace and serenity within the confines of your own space. (Some may think of it as an aspirational window of sorts rather than a canvas.) Abstract landscape paintings by the likes of Korean painter Seungyoon Choi or Georgia-based artist Katherine Sandoz, on the other hand, bring pops of color and movement into a room. These landscapes refuse to serve as a background. Elsewhere, Adam Straus’s technology-inspired paintings highlight how our extreme involvement with our devices has removed us from the glory of the world around us. Influenced by modern life and steeped in social commentary, Straus’s landscape paintings make us see our surroundings anew.

Whether you’re seeking works by the world’s most notable names or those authored by underground legends, find a vast collection of landscape paintings on 1stDibs.
