Gradually becoming more influenced by naturalistic landscape painting, he took lessons from Jean-Michel Diébolt, and began making sojourns to paint natural settings in the provinces. Dupré's work differed from others' in the Barbizon School because he did not strictly associate himself with the area around the Forest of Fontainebleau, instead preferring the village of L'Isle d'Adam north of Paris, and his work tended to be more romantic. Like many of his Barbizon contemporaries, Duprée was influential with the Impressionists. --- measurements: Diameter: 7.4 cm (2 15/16 in.) state of the work: edition of the work: support materials: inscriptions: inscription: reverse - "O Crux ave spes unica." translation: remark: --- CURRENT EXHIBITIONS --- LEGACY EXHIBITIONS --- PROVENANCE --- fun fact: digital description: wall description: --- RELATED WORKS --- CITATIONS --- IMAGES web: https://openaccess-cdn.clevelandart.org/1923.443/1923.443_web.jpg print: https://openaccess-cdn.clevelandart.org/1923.443/1923.443_print.jpg full: https://openaccess-cdn.clevelandart.org/1923.443/1923.443_full.tif
