Austrian-born Australian Painter, 1811-1901 was an Austrian-born artist, active in Australia 1852-1882. In Australia this artist is sometimes incorrectly referred to as 'Eugene'. Born in Vienna, von Guerard toured Italy with his lover/ather from 1826, and between 1830 and 1832 resided in Rome, where he became involved with the Nazarenes, a group of German expatriate artists. From around 1839 to 1844 he studied landscape painting at the Dusseldorf Academy, and travelled widely. Von Guerard's personal artistic style was formed by the heritage of Claude Lorraine, Nicolas Poussin and Salvator Rosa,  Related Paintings of Eugene Guerard :. | Mr Clark's station,Deep Creek,near Keilor | Mount Kosciusko,seen from the Victorian border | Scene de harem (mk32) | Spring in the valley of Mitta Mitta,with the Bogong Ranges in the distance | Tortoni-s the elegant cafe frequented by the ever-social Manet |
