About the piece

Created in 1873, this late work by the French master Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot exemplifies his signature 'souvenir' style. The painting uses a delicate, silvery palette to depict a group of figures and a solitary goat at the water's edge, with the soft light of the Mediterranean sun creating a dreamlike, timeless atmosphere.
