Ballagny

Ballagny is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

A French printmaker active in the mid-1800s, Ballagny made fine etchings of everyday scenes. One of them is the Autumn 1851 print, a detailed landscape showing the season’s soft light and bare branches in the Beard collection. Look closely: the plate feels almost photographic for its time, catching a fleeting moment before photography took over.

Tap Autumn 1851 to zoom in on the delicate lines and quiet mood of a Paris suburb in 1851.
