Italian Landscape Attributed To Giovanni Battista Busiri (1698–1757)
The work is attributed to Giovanni Battista Busiri (1698–1757), a Roman painter, draftsman, and engraver who specialized in landscapes and views of Rome and its countryside.
Busiri is particularly known for his pastoral landscapes, his imaginary or topographical views, and his compositions inspired by the tradition of Gaspard Dughet and Claude Lorrain. His works were particularly sought after by British travelers on the Grand Tour.
The Louvre Museum holds, among other works, The Village and Waterfalls of Tivoli, currently on loan to Busiri, while the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Morgan Library & Museum, and the National Gallery of Victoria hold works or drawings that allow us to compare his landscape style with that seen here.
Note: the painting has been re-stretched and has a few minor touch-ups. Nineteenth-century period frame.
