Painted by François Edme Ricois, a renowned artist from the period, this artwork measures 28 x 42 cm and is currently housed in the Fondation Glenat in Grenoble, France. The painting captures the majestic beauty of the Alps mountains with remarkable precision. The towering peaks stand proudly against a vibrant blue sky, creating a breathtaking backdrop for the scene. Nestled within this awe-inspiring natural setting is La Grande Chartreuse, an architectural masterpiece that serves as a convent for members of the Carthusian order. Ricois skillfully employs color and lighting to bring life to his composition. The warm glow emanating from within La Grande Chartreuse illuminates its surroundings and draws our attention towards it.
