View of a Sepulchre in the Underground Grotto near the Church of S.Nicola on the Island of Lipari, Jean-Pierre-Louis-Laurent Houel
In the State Hermitage Museum, St Petersburg. Gouache on paper, roughly 12×12″ (30x30cm)
This beautiful gouache painting by the 18th century French painter Jean-Pierre Houel conveys a wonderful feeling for both the shadowed recesses of the space and the rough stone texture of the walls.
