"Views From Liber Veritatis" is a notable collection of prints by the English engraver Richard Earlom, created in the late 18th century. This work is a reproduction of the original drawings by the renowned French Baroque painter Claude Lorrain, whose real name was Claude Gellée. Claude Lorrain is celebrated for his idyllic and classical landscape paintings, which had a profound influence on the development of landscape art in Europe.

The original "Liber Veritatis" (Book of Truth) was a personal record kept by Claude Lorrain, consisting of around 200 drawings that documented his completed paintings. These drawings served as a form of authentication and a visual inventory for his patrons, ensuring that his works could be distinguished from copies or forgeries. The collection is a testament to Claude's meticulous approach to his craft and his desire to preserve the integrity of his artistic output.

Richard Earlom's engravings, published between 1774 and 1777, brought these drawings to a wider audience. Earlom, known for his skill in mezzotint engraving, meticulously reproduced the delicate and intricate details of Claude's original sketches. The publication of "Views From Liber Veritatis" was a significant event in the art world, as it provided artists, collectors, and connoisseurs with access to Claude Lorrain's compositions and techniques. The prints were accompanied by descriptive texts written by John Boydell, a prominent London publisher and print dealer, who played a crucial role in the dissemination of these works.

Earlom's engravings not only preserved the legacy of Claude Lorrain but also influenced subsequent generations of landscape artists. The collection remains a valuable resource for the study of Baroque landscape painting and printmaking. "Views From Liber Veritatis" is celebrated for its contribution to art history, exemplifying the collaboration between artists and engravers in the preservation and propagation of artistic heritage.
