Louis Amable Crapelet 1822-1867 Mosque In Cairo Watercolor
Louis Amable Crapelet 1822-1867
Mosque in Cairo
Watercolor
Signed, located and dated Kairo 1857 lower right
Framed dimensions: 33 x 38 cm
Orientalist painter, student of Corot, he is essentially known for his landscapes and street scenes inspired by his travels in Egypt and the Middle East. Sensitive before the Impressionists to translating the light and the fleeting character of the characters, he plays with the effects of contrast and light to deliver, like Alexandre-Gabriel Decamps (1803-1860), a very poetic vision of the East.
