About the piece

Painted in 1836, this work captures the historic Villeneuve-lès-Avignon with the delicate tonal sensitivity for which Corot is renowned. The composition balances the warm, sunlit structures of the hillside against the soft, hazy blues of the distant horizons, creating a serene and grounded presence for any interior space.
