'''Claude Lorrain''' (Chamagne, Lorraine, 1600 – Rome, 1682) was a [[French]] [[painter]] of the [[Baroque]] era.
By the 1630s Lorrain was well known and successful, with illustrious patrons among the French and Italian aristocracy. [http://www.answers.com/topic/claude-lorrain] He exerted considerable influence on landscape artists of the 18th and 19th centuries, as these examples show. The English painter [[William Turner]] was especially indebted to Claude, and tried to outdo his grand compositions. [http://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/artists/claude]
