註釋Examines the eighteenth-century painting in the collection of the Speed Art Museum in Louisville, Kentucky. Summarizes the life and career of the artist and explores the depictions of eremitical monks and friars in the oeuvre of Robert. Places the painting in historical context by discussing possible literary sources, the artist's role as a garden designer, and the popularity of hermitages and other picturesque constructions in English and French gardens in the 1700s.
