Lake Como
Tones: Fawn, Dusty Blue, Khaki, Slate
About The Print:Â The blue gray mountains simply depicted in soft colors, tower over the edge of Lake Como. Watercolor on paper.
About The Artist: Francis Towne was an English landscape painter best known for his delicate, atmospheric watercolors. Based primarily in Exeter, he developed a distinctive style characterized by clear outlines, balanced compositions, and luminous washes of color. A pivotal journey to Italy in the 1780s deeply influenced his work, leading to a series of refined, architectural landscapes. Though largely overlooked in his lifetime, Towne’s art was rediscovered in the 20th century and is now recognized for its pioneering role in the development of British watercolor painting.
