If something about this painting by Peter Durieux makes you think of a photograph, that’s not surprising.

Durieux was trained as a photographer. He paints landscapes that he sees in his mind, turning them this way and that way to create the ideal composition – almost like how a photographer would move around his subject to find just the right angle.
