Artist

Gaspard Le Marchant Tupper

Gaspard Le Marchant Tupper is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Gaspard Le Marchant Tupper painted Dardanelles on a napkin in 1854 while waiting for a ferry. He never sold it. The watercolor shows a smudge of smoke over distant cliffs and a single gull riding the wind like it owns the sky. You’ll find it squirreled away in the Maritime Art drawers at the V&A, right behind the Turner wheat-pastures—same salt light, same quiet awe.
