Summary: The Museum of Valence will exhibit sixty extraordinary paintings and drawings this summer, retracing the golden age of artistic production in Great Britain during the Georgian era (early 18th – mid-19th century). Artistic excellence was particularly demonstrated in portraiture and landscapes, two genres that were especially appreciated in this period by amateurs and members of the gentry, as they expressed the social and political concerns of a nation on the rise. This exhibition includes works by the principal representatives of great English portraiture, including Gainsborough, Reynolds, Raeburn, and Lawrence; and the great masters of landscape painting, Constable, Bonington, and Turner.
