## The artist

[Jean Baptiste Camille Corot](https://www.ochreeditions.com/artists/jean-baptiste-camille-corot), French, 1796–1875

Corot trained with the landscape painters Achille-Etna Michallon and Jean-Victor Bertin, then spent 1825–28 in Italy, where his small oil sketches of Rome and the Campagna caught its clear light with great economy. He returned to Italy twice and travelled widely in France.
