The countryside and classical ruins around Rome, the Roman Campagna, inspired Claude to become one of the greatest masters of ideal-landscape painting, an art form that seeks to present a view of nature more beautiful and harmonious than nature itself. Claude's special contribution to the genre is considered to be his poetic rendering of light. Industrious, amiable and shrewd, by his mid-thirties he was keenly sought after as an artist, receiving commissions from Pope Pope Urban VIII and even King Philip IV of Spain. Claude enjoyed a highly successful career into old age and amassed a comfortable fortune which lasted him until his death in 1682. |
