Vickers

Vickers is a Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Vickers painted architecture and harbor scenes in watercolor around the 1830s. Two examples in this set are The Cathedral of Vassili Blaggenoi, Moscow and In the Harbour, Boulogne. Both show precise ink lines and washes of color that build up the details of buildings and boats. The works belong to an era when British artists traveled Europe to sketch and publish views for armchair travelers. Next, tap In the Harbour, Boulogne to see how light and shadow move across rigging and stone.
