Classical landscape
Weary Trampers

Barret is a Barbizon school artist. 9 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Barret painted quiet watercolour scenes in the late 1700s and early 1800s. They show gentle landscapes like "Trees and Horses" from 1782 and "Weary Trampers" from 1840, plus a couple of classical set-ups. The soft washes and careful detail feel very much of their time, when artists carried small sheets outdoors to catch light and weather. Tap "Weary Trampers" to stand right beside the road with the travelers.
