Description: | Signed: yes Description: Corot owned a house in Chaville near Ville-d'Avray and started painting views of this part of France during 1823 and following his second trip to Italy in 1834. This small-scale canvas shows a hillside path descending towards a plain in the distant background. The grey cloudy sky and the dark tones used for the trees and bushes alongside the path suggest an approaching storm. However, in the distant plain a ray of light suggests a patch of light blue sky beyond the clouds. | Subjects: | landscape; place (Chaville) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Corot, Jean-Baptiste-Camille (French painter and draftsman, 1796-1875) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8447... | Go to resource |
