One of the students of the Düsseldorf Academy who went out into the world and spread the Düsseldorf style was Eugen Guérard, who was born in Vienna. At the age of 41, he went to Australia for almost thirty years, founded a drawing school and later, as curator at the National Gallery of Victoria, shaped the teaching and style of the art school there. At a young age, he travelled for three years through southern Italy and Sicily with his father, the painter Bernard von Guérard. The sketches he made there form the basis and inspiration for the landscape shown here from 1846.
