The painting was created in Varallo, a district of Piedmont in northern Italy, between Milan and Turin. Clifford was deeply influenced by Burne-Jones, whose admiration for the Italian Renaissance painter Bernardino Luini shaped his artistic style. Luini’s influence is particularly visible in the striking, expressive eyes of Clifford’s figures, which became a distinctive feature of his work. Clifford belonged to a group of Burne-Jones followers whose art was described as “poetry without grammar.” His granddaughter remembered him as a deeply religious man, fascinated by Duchesses, and exceptionally talented in watercolour.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Patrick Boyd-Carpenter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65175779115385,"sku":null,"price":1450.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0578\/0291\/6033\/files\/af462ad8-b6ce-42a1-964f-b4d300ad2f99.png?v=1794320845","url":"https:\/\/www.pbcfineart.co.uk\/products\/edward-clifford-watercolour-portrait-maria-a-luini-like-head","provider":"Patrick Boyd-Carpenter","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
