Corot, Jean-Baptiste-Camille (1796-1875).
French painter.
Corot was the leading painter of the Barbizon school of France in the mid-nineteenth century.
He is a pivotal figure in landscape painting and his vast output simultaneously references the Neo-Classical tradition and anticipates the plein-air innovations of Impressionism.
