About the piece
Painted in 1874, Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot's 'Lady in Blue' is a celebrated example of late-career portraiture. The vibrant blue of the dress commands attention, while the soft, atmospheric rendering of the studio interior and the woman's contemplative expression create a sophisticated, timeless elegance.
