Description |
"En la Vista de la ciudad de Caracas, del inglés Joseph Thomas - pintor que, según las investigaciones de Alfredo Boulton, entró y salió del país con bastante frecuencia entre los años 1837 y 1844 - podemos observar con relativa precisión, además de la grandiosidad del paisaje natural y sus inmensas proporciones, el emplazamiento general de la ciudad, las diferencias volumétricas y escala de las edificaciones. Su imagen de Caracas, la única obra artística que ha sido identificada con su nombre, es una de las más descriptivas de la extensión y la forma de la ciudad porque, aunque la mirada del autor se centra, como en las imágenes anteriores, en la grandiosidad natural, en ella también se observan detalles arquitectónicos y un registro de las residencias capitalinas más importantes; esto sigue un modelo tradicional europeo de las visiones topográficas donde, a modo de leyenda, se enumeraban las edificaciones o monumentos. La apariencia general sigue siendo ordenada, limpia y con una atmósfera serena, no del todo acorde con nuestro ambiente tropical. Es una diferencia que bien señala Palenzuela: "El grabado de Thomas está lleno de detalles: muros, casas, patios, iglesias, calles, palmeras, ruinas, la extraordinaria montaña y, por si fuera poco, algunos modales en el vestir citadino. Su atmósfera es propia de un clima frío. Las construcciones parecen sólidas. La vida se muestra apacible"" Carola Bravo. 2008: Tres visiones de Caracas.
