Gabriel Perelle - Landscape View With Ruins

Landscape View With Ruins

View Framed Image:

Title: Landscape View With Ruins
Artist: Perelle, Gabriel (Vernon-sur-Seine, 1604 - Paris, 1677)
Date: c. 1660
Medium: Original Etching & Engraving
Publisher: Nicolaes Visscher, Amsterdam
Note: Gabriel Perelle: An eminent French designer and engraver, Gabriel Perelle received instructions in painting, etching and engraving from Daniel Rabel. His first published etchings bear the date of 1635. For the following thirty years Perelle created a large number of superbly crafted etchings of landscapes and views. Gabriel Perelle's last etchings date from around 1665. After that time he was commissioned by the King of France to draw maps and military plans.
  Although he engraved designs after the work of other masters, such as, Poussin, Paul Bril, Asselyn and Silvestre, most of Gabriel Perelle's graphic oeuvre (including this original example of a landscape view with ruins) was both designed and engraved by his hand. And interestingly, even with his topographical views, Perelle frequently embellished his compositions with imaginary ruins and other objects. Thus Perelle's etched views are also Utopian landscapes of the mind.
  In much of his work, Gabriel Perelle was assisted by his two sons, Adam (1638-1695) and Nicolas (1631-1695). As they were both trained and tutored by their father it is impossible to differentiate their work. Most of Perelle's etchings and engravings were published in numbered sets of at least ten related prints. Two of Gabriel Perelle's most famous series are entitled, Delices de Paris and Delices de Versailles. Many of his sets were published by Europe's two most influential publishing houses; Visscher, in Amsterdam, and Mariette, in Paris.
