AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Title: Nymphs' Bath

School: English

Author: John Crome (Norwich, 1768–1821), Attributed

Style: Landscape Romanticism

Technique: oil on canvas

Author:
John Crome was a distinguished English landscape painter and a central figure of the so-called Norwich School, regarded as the first regional artistic movement in England. His work is characterized by a deep observation of nature, a carefully crafted luminous atmosphere, and a clear influence from seventeenth-century Dutch landscape painting. Crome stood out especially for his compositions of rural landscapes and naturalistic scenes of great sensitivity.

The composition portrays a mythological scene set in a richly atmospheric wooded landscape. In the foreground, several female figures — identified as nymphs — stand beside a watercourse in a relaxed posture, naturally integrated into the surroundings. Visual prominence falls on the large central tree, with a sturdy trunk and sinuous branches, which structures the scene and adds depth to the composition. The sky, treated with soft chromatic transitions, reinforces the poetic and contemplative character of the work. The brushwork is loose yet controlled, with particular attention to light and shadow effects, typical of early Romantic landscape painting.
The work shows restorations in keeping with its age.

A carved and gilded wooden frame with a strong decorative presence, featuring a wide molding and classic ornamentation of scrollwork and vegetal motifs. It shows a patina appropriate to the period, enhancing the historical character of the piece.

The frame comes as a gift. It may be damaged during transport even if it is properly packaged.
