Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot
Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot (16 July 1796 - 22 February 1875) was a French landscape and portrait painter as well as a printmaker in etching.
He is a key figure in landscape painting, and painted many works. He was in the Neo-Classical tradition, but he anticipated the "en plein air" (painting outside in front of the scenery) of impressionism.
