Landscape with a Tree in the Foreground
Raphael Lamar West
ca. 1800 · Graphite, pen and brown ink on gray paper · Drawings and Prints
Born and raised in London, Raphael Lamar West assisted his famous father Benjamin West, and became a skilled painter and draftsman in his own right. This drawing comes from a group that descended in the artist’s family, with the pen work and knotted central tree trunk close in style to known works by Raphael.
