## Bio

Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot was born in Paris on 16 July 1796 and spent most of his long life working in oils, etching, and above all the landscape tradition he would quietly reinvent. Where his predecessors composed nature indoors from memory, Corot began working outside, watching the real play of light on leaves and water. His vast output—hundreds of canvases—carried the formal discipline of Neo-Classicism into something looser and more atmospheric, a style that pointed directly toward the plein-air revolution the Impressionists would make explicit a generation later. He died in Paris on 22 February 1875, having painted the hinge between two worlds.
