Manner of Charles F.G. Lacroix, French, Oil/Canvas

Old Master's View of Marseille (Mediterranean Harbor) France, 18th Century, oil on canvas, in restored condition. Charles Francois Lacroix de Marseille is known for his numerous marine and imaginary landscapes, often produced in pairs and in smaller formats. Lacroix's years of training are not documented. His name suggests that he was probably born in the port city of Marseille and, due to clear stylistic parallels to the oeuvre of Claude-Joseph Vernet (1714–1789), it is assumed that Lacroix was his student.
