  • 1821.03.16/ maison de ventes : Stanley (George). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[A Landscape of the most exquisite beauty, in which is introduced an historical subject; probably that of Job under his afflictions. The figures are in the Italian gusto, elegantly drawn, skilfully grouped, and splendidly coloured. The harmony of the Chiaroscuro may vie with that of Titian or Rembrandt, having all the mellowed gradations of the one, with the powerful and delusive effect of the other (Adam Elsheimer)|A Landscape of the most exquisite beauty, in which is introduced an historical subject; probably that of Job under his afflictions.
