About the Item

Attributed to Emmanuel Costa (French, 1833-1921) Untitled, c. Late 19th century Oil on wood panel 9 1/2 x 13 1/4 in. Framed: 14 x 18 x 1 1/4 in. Signed lower right: Costa Emmanuel Born in Menton in 1833, Emmanuel Costa studied under Paul Delaroche (1797-1856) and Gaetano Ferri at the Academy of Turin. Following this he travelled to Paris and Venice where he painted the same views as Canaletto (1697-1768) and Guardi (1712-1793). He was a prolific and talented watercolourist who produced not only numerous religious works for various churches, but also decorative frescoes for villas, castles and private buildings, as well as public buildings such as the Opera in Nice. He painted lots of views of Nice and the surrounding countryside. He would make preliminary en plein air sketches of the sites and architecture, then on the basis of these drawings he painted detailed and accurate watercolours in his studio. As international tourism grew during this period, these views found a ready market amongst the aristocracy and the burgeoning middle classes as Nice was regarded as one of the cities to be visited during the Gand Tour. His cityscapes aimed to show not only the daily life but also some topographical aspects of Nice. (Bio sourced from Bonhams)
