Corot

Synopsis:
With paintings of mood-filled views and luminous plein air studies that record the qualities of a specific place and time, Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot is often called the most important French landscapist of the 19th-century. In this book, essays chronicle Corot's life: from his traditional art education in Italy where he learned classical landscape painting, to his works in the forest of Fontainebleau upon his return to France. With much new scholarship and important essays on forgeries and collectors, this work is destined to become the authoritative reference on the artist.
