Lot 139

Description

Follower of Josef Rebell, 
Austrian / German, 1787-1828- 

View of Sorrento at sunset; 

oil on canvas, bears signature 'Rebell' (lower right), 47.5 x 66.5 cm., (unframed). 

Provenance: 
Anon. sale Sotheby's, London, 29 March 2001, lot 1 (£13,150). 

Note: 
The present work depicts the dramatic cliff faces of the Sorrento coastline from the vantage point of the sea, at sunset. Rebell was particularly revered, in his time and since, for his romantic Italian landscapes and seascapes, especially along the coastline south-east of Naples, and the artist here was clearly painting in his footsteps. Like Rebell, this painting very much pays homage to the Arcadian landscape ideals of natural beauty and harmony, as championed by Claude in Italy two centuries earlier.
