Steamboats soon replaced sailing boats.
The painter was fascinated by progress and the forces of nature : storms, fires and avalanches...

For over 60 years, risking his life, he sketched in his travel journal the many landscapes he crossed.
Discover the life and work of the Painter of Light and the revolutionary times he lived in.
