Jean Baptiste Camille Corot Knihy

Výbor korespondence, úvah a vzpomínek francouzského malíře Jean-Baptiste Camille Corota sestavená Vlastimilem Fialou.

Corot was the leading painter of the Barbizon school of France in the mid-nineteenth century. He is a pivotal figure in landscape painting. His work simultaneously references the Neo-Classical tradition and anticipates the plein-air innovations of Impressionism. Of him Claude Monet exclaimed "There is only one master here-Corot. We are nothing compared to him, nothing." His contributions to figure painting are hardly less important; Degas preferred his figures to his landscapes, and the classical figures of Picasso pay overt homage to Corot's influence. This book covers his most important and beautiful work.
