Michel-François Préaulx [Préaux]
Michel-François Préaulx [Préaux] is a Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Michel-François Préaulx painted Constantinople’s skylines in soft watercolours around 1800-1820. His brush tracked the Golden Horn’s curves and the domes of Pera from high vantage points, while distant mosques and cemeteries dotted the edges. The vantage point in Constantinople from Pera, looking across the Golden Horn to Seraglio Point lets you stand where he once stood. Tap the work to feel the cool paper and the salt breeze from centuries ago.
