Ca. 11.9 x 8.5 cm; plate mark not visible; in fine condition.</p><p>Literature: Le Blanc.</p><p>Loutherbourg an Alsatian painter who studied etching in Johann Georg Wille's academy clearly admired the prints of the seventeenth-century Neapolitan painter Salvator Rosa as did many other French printmakers of the time.

He also had an interest in faith-healing and the occult and was a companion of the confidence-trickster Alessandro Cagliostro</p><p><input type="checkbox"></p></p><p>Loutherbourg was born in Strasbourg in 1740 the son of an expatriate Polish miniature painter.1 Intended for the Lutheran ministry he was educated at the University of Strasbourg.2</p><p>Rejecting a religious calling Loutherbourg decided to become a painter and in 1755 placed himself under >Charles-André van Loo in Paris and later under Francesco Giuseppe Casanova. His talent developed rapidly and he became a figure in the fashionable society of the day. In 1767 he was elected to the French Academy although below the age required by the rules of the institution and painted landscapes sea storms and battles all of which work had a celebrity above those of the specialists then working in Paris. He made his debut with the exhibition of twelve pictures including <em>Storm at Sunset</em> <em>Night</em> and <em>Morning after Rain</em>.2</p><p>Loutherbourg then travelled through Switzerland Germany and Italy distinguishing himself as much by his mechanical inventions as by his painting. One of these showing new effects produced in a model theatre was the wonder of the day with its use of lights behind canvas representing the moon and stars and the illusory appearance of running water produced by clear blue sheets of metal and gauze with loose threads of silver.2</p><p>In 1771 he settled in London where David Garrick paid him £500 a year to design scenery and costumes and oversee the stage machinery at the Drury Lane Theatre.3 His stage effects attracted the admiration not just of the general public but also of artists including Joshua Reynolds. He devised scenic effects in which for instance green trees gradually became russet and the moon rose and lit the edges of passing clouds:2 illusions achieved through the use of coloured lantern-slides and the ingenious lighting of transparencies.4 He continued to work at the theatre until 1785.3</p><p>He achieved an even greater success with an entertainment called the <em>Eidophusikon</em> meaning "image of nature". This was a miniature mechanical theatre measuring six by eight feet and described as displaying "Various Imitations of Natural Phenomena represented by Moving Pictures". It was presented at Loutherbourg's home from March 1781 in an auditorium seating about 130 people. He used Argand lamps to light the stage and stained glass to change colours.</p><p>At Christmas 1781 Loutherbourg mounted a spectacle at a party in the Egyptian Hall at Fonthill for William Beckford promising according to Beckford to "present a mysterious something that the eye has not seen or heart of man conceived".4 Following this he attempted rather more fantastical subjects for the Eidophusikon presenting a scene from <em>Paradise Lost</em> with "Satan arraying his troops on the banks of the Fiery Lake and the rising of the Palace of Pandemonium".4 The Eidophusikon soon closed however as the income did not cover the costs and the audience demanded new productions faster than Loutherbourg could create them. He has been called the inventor of the panorama but although it first appeared about the same time as the Eidophusikon the first panorama was painted and exhibited by the Scottish painter Robert Barker.</p><p>Despite these other projects Loutherbourg still found time for painting. <em>Lord Howe's action or the Glorious First of June</em> exhibited 1795 and other large naval pictures were commissioned to commemorate British naval victories many of them ending up soon afterwards in the Greenwich Hospital Gallery in whose successor the National Maritime Museum they still remain. His finest work was the <em>Destruction of the Armada</em>. He also painted the <em>Great Fire of London</em> and several historical works including the <em>Attack of the Combined Armies on Valenciennes</em> 1793.2 He was interested in the industrial revolution and his 1801 painting <em>Coalbrookdale by Night</em> shows iron foundries at work.</p><p>Seven of his paintings including <em>Lodore Waterfall</em> and <em>Skating in Hyde Park</em> are in the Government Art Collection.5</p><p>He was made a member of the Royal Academy in 1781.</p><p>Two sets of drawings by de Loutherbourg were published reproduced in aquatint under the title <em>Picturesque English Scenery</em> in 1801 and 1805. He also contributed illustrations to a Bible published by Thomas Macklin in 1800.3 After his death Cadell and Davies published a volume of the Apocrypha. All 110 of his drawings for the vignettes but not the Apocrypha are pasted in the Bowyer Bible in Bolton Museum in Greater Manchester.</p><p>Esoteric interests</p><p>In 1789 Loutherbourg temporarily gave up painting in order to pursue an interest in alchemy and the supernatural.3 He met Alessandro di Cagliostro who instructed him in the occult.3 He travelled about with Cagliostro leaving him however before his condemnation to death.2 He and his wife also took up faith-healing. A pamphlet called <em>A List of a Few Cures performed by Mr and Mrs De Loutherbourg of Hammersmith Terrace without Medicine</em> was published in 1789. Written by a follower named Mary Pratt it claimed that the Loutherbourgs had cured two thousand people between Christmas 1788 and the following July "having been made proper recipients to receive divine manuductions".6</p><p>Death</p><p>Loutherbourg died in Chiswick in 1812.</p><p>There are paintings by him in the collections of many British institutions including Tate Britain The Victoria and Albert Museum The National Portrait Gallery The Royal Academy of Art Leicester Farnham and Derby Art Gallery.7</p><p>Loutherbourg was buried in Chiswick Old Cemetery adjoining the graveyard of St Nicholas Church Chiswick. Buried nearby are the artists William Hogarth and James Abbott McNeill Whistler.</p>
