Her influence was so great that she has been referred to as "The Uncrowned Queen." * * * * #museum #permanentcollection #portrait #oiloncanvas #18thcentury

#WorkOfArtWednesday * * * * Charles-François Daubigny Bords de Riviere c. 1860 Oil on panel The Elizabeth Holmes Fisher Collection * * * * " Charles-Francois Daubigny (Paris, 15 February 1817 – 19 February 1878 in Paris) was one of the painters of the Barbizon school, and is considered an important precursor of #Impressionism. Daubigny was born into a family of painters and was taught the art by his father Edmond François Daubigny and his uncle, miniaturist Pierre Daubigny. Initially Daubigny painted in a traditional style, but this changed after 1843 when he settled in Barbizon to work outside in #nature. Even more important was his meeting with #CamilleCorot in 1852 in Optevoz (Isère). On his famous boat Botin, which he had turned into a #studio, he painted along the #Seine and Oise, often in the region around Auvers. From 1852 onward he came under the influence of #GustaveCourbet.
