HUBERT ROBERT, RUINS WITH FIGURES, RED CHALK
The ruins of Octavia's portico were depicted many times by Hubert Robert. At the Salon of 1785, a painting entitled Le Portique d'Octavie à Rome servant actuellement de marché aux poissons was a great success (Louvre, inv. 7637; G. Faroult, Hubert Robert (1733-1808) : un peintre visionnaire, cat. exp. Paris, 2016, p. 242-243). The present sheet shows the same monument, this time from the side. Characteristic of Hubert Robert's style during his stay in Rome (1754-1765), the rapid application of the chalk also echoes the Vue du portique du Panthéon à Rome, executed in situ in 1762, which uses the same technique, (private collection, Hommage à la galerie Cailleux, cat. exp., Gent, 2015, p. 150-151).
