Details

Franz Innocenz Josef Kobell was a German painter, draughtsman and etcher, part of the German branch of the Kobell family of painters. He lived in Rome from 1779 to 1784 and became influenced by the heroic, classical landscapes of Claude and Poussin; thereafter, he lived and worked in Munich. He rarely dated his works and produced few oil paintings, preferring instead to execute watercolour sketches and ink drawings of classically composed landscapes. //
