Notes:
This etching is after a painting of the same title by French artist Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot (1796-1875). Engraved by French artist Charles Giroux (1828-1885). This etching was exhibited at the "Cent Chefs d'Oeuvre" or "Hundred Masterpieces of Work", an exhibition held June 12, 1883 in the Gallery of Georges Petit, Paris, France. Georges Petit (1856-1920) was a French art dealer, a key figure in the Paris art world and an important promoter and cultivator of Impressionist artists.
Biography:
Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot (July 17, 1796 - February 22, 1875) was a French landscape painter and printmaker in etching. 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.
Camille Corot was born in Paris in 1796, in a house at 125 Rue du Bac, now demolished. His family were bourgeois people-his father was a wigmaker and his mother a milliner-and unlike the experience of some of his artistic colleagues, throughout his life he never felt the want of money, as his parents made good investments and ran their businesses well. After his parents married, they bought the millinery shop where she had worked and he gave up his career as a wigmaker to run the business side of the shop. The store was a famous destination for fashionable Parisians and earned the family an excellent income. Corot was the middle of three children born to the family, who lived above their shop during those years.
