Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot Art

French, 1796-1875
Corot was a French landscape and portrait painter as well as a printmaker who is considered a great master of landscape painting in the 19th century. A pivotal figure in landscape painting, his vast output (over 3,000 paintings) simultaneously references the Neo-Classical tradition and anticipates the plein-air innovations of Impressionism. In the spring of 1829, Corot came to Barbizon to paint in the Forest of Fontainebleau, he had first painted in the forest at Chailly in 1822. He returned to Barbizon in the autumn of 1830 and in the summer of 1831, where he made drawings and oil studies, from which he made a painting intended for the Salon of 1830. The Barbizon school of painters were part of an art movement towards Realism in art, which arose in the context of the dominant Romantic Movement of the time. The Barbizon school was active roughly from 1830 through 1870.

“Penobscot” Ship Portrait Sidewheeler Steamboat Paddle Steamer Oil on Canvas
“Penobscot” Ship Portrait Sidewheeler Steamboat Paddle Steamer Oil on Canvas

“Penobscot” Ship Portrait Sidewheeler Steamboat Paddle Steamer Oil on Canvas

Located in Yardley, PA

A wonderful realistic portrait of the Penobscot, a mid-19th century coastal sidewheel steamer, rendered in Cameron’s hallmark marine portrait style - technically meticulous, historically informed, and visually serene. Executed with crisp linework and a soft, luminous palette, the ship is shown in profile navigating calm Atlantic waters under both steam and sail, her red paddle box emblazoned boldly with her name. Commissioned in 1843 by Menemon Sanford’s Steamship Line and constructed in New York, the Penobscot was a near twin to her sister ship, the Kennebec, but became especially prized for her seaworthiness. Measuring 228 feet in length with a 48-foot beam and twin 14-foot paddlewheels, she carried schooner rigging fore and aft, providing the added stability necessary for coastal and offshore passages. Initially assigned to the Maine coastal excursion routes, she would later be reassigned to the elite New York–Philadelphia line and eventually sold and renamed Norfolk for pre-Civil War service along the southern coast. This work is oil on canvas and is signed in the lower right. It is housed in its original black frame and retains the artist’s description of the ship on the reverse. Size: 22 inches tall by 44 inches wide (painting) 26 inches tall by 48 inches wide by 1 inch deep (frame) Provenance: Private collection; Acquired from the above About the artist: A Delaware artist, Scott Cameron paints the simple elegance of the America’s Cup races, serene coastal marsh scenes, timeless landscape vistas and historic steamboats in a style reminiscent of the era in which they reigned. An admirer of Andrew Wyeth and the Brandywine School of painters, Scott has combined the detail and quiet stillness of that School in his landscapes with the Luminist School’s sense of light glowing from within. A soft gentle atmosphere seems to fall over each scene adding to the peacefulness of the setting, and a sense of a time gone by. His America’s Cup scenes capture the action at a moment in time, allowing the beauty of the wind-filled sails to become the central design element of each painting. Scott Cameron has exhibited his oil paintings in numerous national and regional shows from the Mystic Seaport Museum to solo and group shows in some of the foremost galleries throughout the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states. Favorite painting locations are the waterways and coastal inlets of Martha’s Vineyard and Maryland’s Eastern Shore and the gentle rolling landscapes of rural Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland. Meticulous research is behind every historic steamboat and America’s Cup painting...

“Kennebec” Ship Portrait Sidewheeler Steamboat Paddle Steamer Oil on Canvas

Located in Yardley, PA

A striking and historically attentive portrait of the sidewheel steamer Kennebec, built in 1842. Rendered in crisp profile against a soft, painterly sky and calm Atlantic swells, Cameron’s portrait captures the stately elegance of early American steam navigation. The Kennebec, identified in bold red lettering on her paddle box, is shown under partial sail with twin smokestacks active - suggesting both the hybrid nature of early steam propulsion and the vessel’s readiness for sea. Flying period flags, including a U.S. ensign and company pennants, she presents as a proud representative of the Sanford Steamship Line, for whom she plied the route between Boston, Bangor, and the summer resorts of Maine. Her design, with a wood hull, 230-foot length, and distinctive “hogging truss,” speaks to mid-19th century innovation tailored to coastwise packets. Cameron’s style is reminiscent of 19th-century ship portraiture yet refined with contemporary technical precision. This is an excellent example of his work. This work is oil on canvas and is signed in the lower right. It is housed in its original black frame and retains the artist’s description of the ship on the reverse.

Le Gué aux Cinq Vaches (The Ford with Five Cows)
Le Gué aux Cinq Vaches (The Ford with Five Cows)

Le Gué aux Cinq Vaches (The Ford with Five Cows)

By Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot

Located in New Orleans, LA

This ethereal landscape with its luminous atmosphere and light-drenched palette is a quintessential plein air masterpiece by the renowned French painter Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot. Regarded by many as the first Impressionist, Corot's paintings served as the inspiration for an entire generation of artists. This example, entitled Le Gué aux Cinq Vaches (The Ford with Five Cows), offers a tranquil scene rendered in his mature style, composed at the apogee of his career after he abandoned the crisp brushwork and classical lines of his predecessors. Rather, the feathery brushstrokes and softened atmosphere of this charming tableau reveals the genius of this legendary artist and portends the revolutionary style of the Impressionists to come. Corot’s work occupies a space between old and new, traditional and modern, in the realm of 19th-century art history. Though he never broke with the traditionalists and academics who remained loyal to the Salon, his works possessed a unique individuality that set his oeuvre apart from other landscape artists of his age. As Etienne Moreau-Nelaton once said, he was “ the last of the classical landscapists and the first of the Impressionists.” His brushstrokes, bold and solid yet feathery and light, transformed the neoclassical landscape and altered plein air painting forever. Corot received a classical education in Rouen before embarking upon an apprenticeship in the family textile trade. The painting was his true passion and he soon devoted his entire life to perfecting his skill. Corot studied first with Achille Etna Michallon and Jean-Victor Bertin, both pupils of the leading historical landscape painter Pierre-Henri de Valenciennes. He visited the countryside of Rome and produced plein air studies, capturing the area’s natural beauty and classical antiquity. His fresh, starkly lit renditions reflect the debate of the day that sought to reconcile classically inspired idealizations with closely observed depictions of light and climate. He debuted at the Paris Salon in 1827, and continued to display there his entire life. As a result, many of these paintings were purchased by the state for provincial museums and by important collectors such as Emperor Napoleon III. For his enduring contribution to the arts, Corot was made a Knight of the Legion of Honor in 1846 and an Officer in 1867. At the Munich International Exposition of 1869, he was made a Knight of the Order of St. Michael. As seen in this extraordinary example, Corot’s work reveals a deep understanding of the French landscape. The dramatic distribution of light and shadow recalls the romantic compositions of Delacroix, while the overwhelming presence of nature pays homage to the influence of the great Barbizon artists. Quintessentially French, Corot’s oeuvre was profoundly influential both upon his contemporaries and later generations of artists. Today, Corot's paintings of idyllic landscapes are in high demand on the art market, with both museums and private collectors competing for his works. This important work is featured on pp. 188-189 of L'Oeuvre de Corot: catalogue raisonné et illustré, Paris 1905, Vol. III, by A. Robaut, with a drawing by Robaut, no. 1756.
