Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[The Merry-making, an interior, full of that irresistably entertaining humour so promanent in his works -- that laughter provoking talent which he managed with so much adroitness and effect.

  • 1801.02.12/ maison de ventes : Coxe (Peter). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Evening! sun set! the companion. A performance wherein the great Claude may be almost said to have excelled himself, and who can compare with him for receding distances and magic expression of vapour? What can exceed the charming effect before us; the disposition of the trees; the playful undulating rays of glowing light, which tinging at the same time the extremities of the branches, illume the horizon as the sun declines?
