EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Bernard III Lens' masterpiece, "Classical Landscape, 1717". The artwork, measuring 19.5x26 cm, is housed at the Yale Center for British Art and was acquired through the generous Paul Mellon Fund in the USA. Lens skillfully employs bodycolour and gum with white over graphite on vellum to bring this idyllic scene to life. The pastoral setting transports viewers to a serene countryside where shepherds tend their flocks amidst a picturesque landscape. The focal point of the composition is a magnificent waterfall cascading down rocky cliffs into a crystal-clear pool below. A charming hamlet nestled among lush greenery adds an element of human presence to this tranquil environment. A sense of tranquility permeates every inch of this classical landscape as sheep graze peacefully on rolling hillsides. In the distance, we catch sight of a fort atop a mound, evoking thoughts of ancient times and adding depth to the narrative. Bernard III Lens' attention to detail and mastery of technique make this piece truly remarkable. It captures not only nature's beauty but also invites contemplation on themes such as harmony between man and his surroundings. As we admire this timeless artwork captured by Fine Art Finder from www. bridgemanimages. com, let us appreciate its ability to transport us into an enchanting world far removed from our own - one that celebrates both nature's grandeur and mankind's humble existence within it.
