Για το έργο
Hubert Robert's Title Page, etched in 1763–64, is in the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland. It dedicates his suite of Roman views to Marguerite Le Compte. In 1764 she came to Rome with the wealthy writer Claude Henri Watelet. Both practiced etching as amateurs and socialized with artists around the Italian academies. Robert probably hoped the dedication would bring Le Compte's patronage. She may be the woman carrying a muff in the fifth scene, The Ancient Temple. The prints derive from his own pen drawings, placing invented figures beside recognizable Roman monuments.
Με τα λόγια του μουσείου
Derived from his own pen-and-ink drawings, this suite of etchings features fictional characters situated near recognizable buildings and statues in Rome. On the title page, Robert dedicated the suite to Marguerite Le Compte, who visited Rome in 1764 in the company of the wealthy author and art enthusiast Claude Henri Watelet. Both Le Compte and Watelet were amateur etchers, and they socialized with a group that included artists and printmakers centered at the academies in Italy. Robert’s dedication was likely motivated by the hope of future patronage from Le Compte. She may be the generous woman with a hand muff depicted in The Ancient Temple, the fifth scene in this series.
