Carol Forman Tabler: "Vollon Revealed"
June 17, 2015
One of the Frick’s most recent acquisitions is View of Dieppe Harbor, a splendid watercolor and graphite drawing by Antoine Vollon, featured in this summer’s presentation Landscape Drawings in The Frick Collection. Tabler, the preeminent scholar of Vollon and the donor of the work, discusses little-known aspects of the career of the nineteenth-century artist, a still-life specialist who had a passion for landscape.
