Bayeux Cathedral: View from the South-East
The Lantern, Chateau de Chambord
Street Scene, Old Paris

John Burgess is a British Romanticism artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

John Burgess worked in watercolour, painting scenes from France in the 1830s–1870s. His brush captured the lantern glow at Château de Chambord, the narrow lanes of Old Paris, and the stone mass of Bayeux Cathedral from the south-east. He left no dates, so we meet him through these quiet views of buildings and light. Tap into “Street Scene, Old Paris” to step beside a Parisian corner from the 1830s–1870s.
