Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Pen-and-ink wash drawing (5 3/4 x 10 3/4 in.; 14.6 x 27.3 cm), after John Webber's engraving, showing HMS "Resolution" and "Discovery" in the background, with small sailboats and canoes of the Hawaiians busy in the bay, all against a backdrop of an imposing forested mountain. BINDING/CONDITION: Tipped to a modern mount (9 1/4 x 13 1/2 in.; 23.5 x 34.3 cm). (65B2D) AN EXCEPTIONALLY FINE PEN AND INK WASH DRAWING in reduced format after the original engraving that accompanied the published account of Cook's third voyage. Nicolas Ozanne's drawing skills were recognized at a very early age; when he was ten, he was given a place in the studio of Robelin, a drawing master in the Gardes de la Marine, becoming his assistant in 1742. There he came to the attention of Bigot de la Mothe, who had him draw plans for coastal gun batteries. In 1750, Nicolas Ozanne succeeded Robelin as professor of drawing. In 1751, he was commissioned to produce ship designs and engravings of Louis XVI 's trip to Le Havre in 1749. He was admitted as an assistant member of the French Royal Naval Academy and in 1757 was appointed a naval artist at the Palace of Versailles. In 1762 he was given a position in the military geographers' department and was also put in charge of educating the Dauphin's children in naval matters, contributing to the future Louis XVI's interest in the sea. As a marine artist, he is best known for an extensive series of views of French ports and for illustrating the works of Duhamel du Monceau. His brother, Pierre Ozanne (1737-1813), was an engraver and marine engineer, and it may be that Nicolas intended for his brother to engrave this exquisite drawing for publication, hence the inscription on the verso. PROVENANCE: Nineteenth-century pencil inscription on verso "P Ozanne Ohaite" and"6F"; Christie's Paris, 1 April 2016, lot 62 [attributed to Pierre Ozanne] REFERENCES: Forbes 108; Joppien 3.305A; Kroepelien 1083; O'Reilly & Reitman 417.
