Camille Corot | Lo stile artistico

Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot (Parigi, 16 luglio 1796 – Parigi, 22 febbraio 1875) è una delle figure più significative della pittura di paesaggio. Le sue opere, infatti, attingono a piene mani dalla tradizione neoclassica ed, al contempo, anticipano le innovazioni en plein air dell'Impressionismo.

Claude Monet, nel 1897, avrebbe detto di lui: «Qui c'è un solo grande maestro: Corot. Non siamo nulla nei suoi confronti, nulla».

Né il suo contributo nella pittura di figura è meno importante: Edgar Degas, altro noto pittore impressionista, preferiva le sue figure rispetto ai suoi paesaggi, ed in tal senso Corot esercitò un'influenza che traspare persino nelle tele di Pablo Picasso.

Nella sua vita eseguì più di tremila dipinti ed era considerato dai contemporanei come uno dei massimi paesaggisti mai esistiti, a lato di nomi illustri come Claude Lorrain, John Constable e J. M. W. Turner.
