John Ramage's contemporaries

Col. Josiah Parker, by John Ramage, ca. 1789
A work made of color woodblock print; oban.
A work made of opaque watercolor and gold on paper.
A work made of color woodblock print; chuban.
The image shows an etching of a forest scene with towering trees dominating the upper half. The horizon is not clearly visible due to dense foliage, but a line of trees and rocky outcrops in the distance provide a boundary. The fine lines and cross-hatching technique create detailed textures in the tree bark and foliage. The color palette is monochromatic, in shades of black and white emphasizing light and shadow. A large tree with a partially hollow trunk and figures scattered throughout the scene give a sense of scale and activity within the forest setting.
The Visit, by Pietro Longhi, 1746
A work made of oil on canvas.
Self-Portrait, by Francisco Goya, ca. 1796
