Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot (1796 – 1875)
Discover Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot (1796-1875), the master of atmospheric landscapes bridging Neoclassicism & Impressionism. Explore his serene paintings and lasting influence on art history.
This small panel, probably done in the 1860s, was evidently well known and admired in Corot"s circle of friends. Both Constant Dutilleux (1807–1865) and Charles Desavary (1837–1885), two painters living in Arras, a town in northern France that Corot often visited, copied the painting. About 1873 Corot gave it to his patron Cléophas, who had provided him with a supplementary studio where he could work undisturbed.
