17th century · Rome, ideal ports and atmospheric light
Claude Lorrain makes the low sun the center of an ideal landscape where ports, trees, ruins, water and figures blend into the same atmosphere.
Based in Rome, Claude Lorrain observes the countryside, ports and variations of light before recomposing them into ideal landscapes. In its sunrises and sunsets, the star placed near the horizon not only serves as a spectacular effect: it orders the plans, dissolves the distances and gives each architecture, ship or tree a precise value. Dark masses often frame the image while a luminous passage leads towards the sea or the sky. This science of the atmosphere, nourished by drawings on the motif and recorded in the Liber Veritatis, will exert a lasting influence on Turner, Constable and the entire tradition of the European landscape. The selection "Rises and sunsets by Claude Lorrain" notably compares Sunrise and Landscape at Sunset. His reading favors light.
For Claude, the sun is an architecture of light: it connects earth, water, sky and ancient memory.
