TABLEAU "WALL OF PROPERTY IN A WOODED LANDSCAPE" bearing the signature of Henri Joseph HARPIGNIES (1819-1916) Oil on canvas Signed lower left 18,5 x 41 cm Henri Joseph Harpignies is a French landscape painter, watercolorist and engraver of the Barbizon School whose career was spread over time. He participated in the Paris Salon for the first time in 1853 and was present without interruption until 1912, at the age of 93! His life was divided between his Parisian studio, his residence in Saint Privé (Yonne) and frequent stays on the French Riviera. He quickly became wealthy and his hard work ensured him a comfortable income. Harpignies stayed two years in Italy, the country of the painter's consecration. Later, he will never stop claiming to be from Rome "and not from Barbizon". He proclaims Italy the "Promised Land of beauty".
