[WIKIPEDIA]"Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot - 16 July 1796 – 22 February 1875), or simply Camille Corot, was a French landscape and portrait painter as well as a printmaker in etching. (...) [H]is vast output simultaneously referenced the Neo-Classical tradition and anticipated the plein-air innovations of Impressionism. (...) In addition to his landscapes, Corot produced a number of prized figure pictures. While the subjects were sometimes placed in pastoral settings, these were mostly studio pieces, drawn from the live model with both specificity and subtlety. Like his landscapes, they are characterized by a contemplative lyricism[.] (...) Corot painted about fifty portraits, mostly of family and friends. He also painted thirteen reclining nudes[.] (...) Corot also executed many etchings and pencil sketches. Some of the sketches used a system of visual symbols—circles representing areas of light and squares representing shadow. He also experimented with the cliché verre process—a hybrid of photography and engraving." #instaread #NeoClassical #Phototype #Bookstagram #Antiquarian #collectiblebooks #Rare #instabooks #Corot #Books #booksforsale #Vintage #Impressionism #bibliophile #booksale #Reproductions #JeanBaptisteCorot #ValoriPlastici #readersofinstagram #Art #Scarce #Bookworm #bookcollecting #PlenAir #CuttleboneBooks #BooksBooksBooks #CoverArt #CiprianoEOppo
