Entardecer: paisagem com um aqueduto

1818
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 802
Esta obra é parte de uma série de quatro paisagens monumentais representando as horas do dia. Pintadas em Paris no verão de 1818, as paisagens foram concebidas como decorações seguindo o estilo de Joseph Vernet, pintor francês do século XVII, e misturam recordações das ruínas do campo italiano que Gericault visitou em 1817—aqui é possível ver o aqueduto de Spoleto—com os céus tempestuosos e sentimentos turbulentos característicos da estética emergente do romantismo e o conceito anglo-francês do sublime.
