Pair of Grisaille Rococo-Style Landscape Panels

Features:

Grisaille Style: A monochromatic painting technique using shades of blue (a variation called blue grisaille), reminiscent of Delftware or Wedgwood Jasperware.

Neoclassical & Rococo Influence: The landscapes feature romanticized ruins and elegantly dressed figures, typical of 18th-century French and Italian pastoral scenes.

Architectural Panel Style: The arched giltwood frames suggest they were meant as decorative wall panels, possibly trumeau or boiserie panels from an elegant interior.

Grand Tour Aesthetic: These types of paintings were popular souvenirs for aristocrats traveling through Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries.
