ABRAHAM-LOUIS-RODOLPHE DUCROS, BOATS IN THE HARBOUR OF NAPLES, GRAPHITE, PEN AND BROWN INK, WATERCOLOUR HEIGHTENED WITH WHITE
From this great specialist of views of ancient monuments in Rome and Naples in the 1790s, this watercolour is typical of Ducros’s art, of his chromatic palette with a predominance of blues and of his attention to detail, especially for the foreground figures. For other watercolours views of Naples in the Musée Cantonal des Beaux-Arts, Lausanne, inv. 809, 821 (Abraham-Louis-Rodolphe Ducros. Un Peintre suisse en Italie, exhib. cat., Lausanne, Musée Cantonal des Beaux-Arts, and Quebec City, National Museum of Fine Arts, 1998-1999, nos. 52, 53, ill.).
