More about this artwork

The lovely artwork titled "Pettenasco, Lago d’Orta, 4-20 pm, 2 June 1867" was painted by Edward Lear, an artist renowned for his landscape works and detailed travel scenes. This delicate sketch captures a moment at Lago d'Orta in Italy, with masterful spontaneity and precision.In this painting, Lear presents a breezy lakeside scene characterized by quick, fluid strokes that convey both the motion of the foliage and the gentle ripples on the water's surface. Various shades of green and blue dominate the palette, subtly blended to reflect the play of light and shadow. Lear's use of fine lines and sketchy details gives viewers a sense of the natural chaos and beauty of the lakeside environment. Tall, thin trees punctuate the scene, their leaves fluttering in the wind, while the distant lake, sketched with lighter hues, sits tranquilly under an open sky.Lear’s annotations and the precise recording of the date and time suggest his commitment to capturing the essence of the moment as accurately as possible.

Edward Lear (12 May 1812 – 29 January 1888) was an English artist, illustrator, musician, author and poet, who is known mostly for his literary nonsense in poetry and prose and especially his limericks, a form he popularised.

His principal areas of work as an artist were threefold: as a draughtsman employed to make illustrations of birds and animals; making coloured drawings during his journeys, which he reworked later, sometimes as plates for his travel books; and as a (minor) illustrator of Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poems.

As an author, he is known principally for his popular nonsense collections of poems, songs, short stories, botanical drawings, recipes and alphabets. He also composed and published twelve musical settings of Tennyson's poetry.
