Painting Description
"Houses in Naples" is a notable oil painting by the Welsh landscape painter Thomas Jones (1742–1803). Created in 1782, the artwork is celebrated for its pioneering approach to plein air painting and its departure from the grandiose classical landscapes that were popular among Jones's contemporaries. The painting is characterized by its intimate scale and the artist's direct observation of his mundane, everyday surroundings.
The work depicts a close-up view of a series of unembellished urban dwellings in Naples, where Jones lived from 1776 to 1783. The composition is remarkable for its candid representation of the weathered facades and the play of light and shadow across the buildings' surfaces. Unlike the idealized vistas of Italy painted by many of his peers, Jones's "Houses in Naples" offers a more personal and realistic glimpse into the Neapolitan urban landscape.
Measuring 63.5 x 48 cm, the painting is part of a series of small-scale studies that Jones produced during his time in Italy, which were not intended for public exhibition but rather for his own private contemplation and artistic development. These works were only discovered after his death, found among his possessions, and have since been recognized for their significant contribution to the development of modern landscape painting.
"Houses in Naples" is held in high esteem for its modern aesthetic and is often cited as a precursor to the Impressionist movement, which would emerge nearly a century later. The painting is housed in the National Gallery in London, where it continues to be studied and admired for its innovative approach to capturing the essence of a place through the artist's immediate experience.
