Artist

Maria Martineau

Maria Martineau is a Barbizon school artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Maria Martineau painted quiet English landscapes in watercolour during the mid-1800s. Her two known works here—Bed of a Stream from 1858 and Shooters Hill from 1849—show soft washes of colour over gentle hills and streams, the kind of scenes British amateurs loved to collect. If you like early Victorian watercolours, tap into Bed of a Stream to see how she let the paper stay white for light dancing on water.
