About the piece

Created around 1850, this 'souvenir' painting by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot is a masterclass in atmospheric landscape art. Using his signature silvery palette and soft, blurred brushwork, Corot evokes a sense of memory and nostalgia. The composition depicts small figures dancing in a clearing by the shores of Capri, framed by the ethereal, lacy silhouettes of trees against a glowing twilight sky.
