Willows and Poplars, 1871. Creator: Jean Baptiste Camille Corot (French, 1796-1875); Robaut
Willows and Poplars, 1871. Willows and Poplars summarizes Corots aesthetic, combining elements from the classical tradition from which he evolved with the hazy poetic character of his mature style. The dream of Arcadia is suggested by the two figures, utterly removed from time and place, reclining under the grove of trees. The line is so relaxed that it draws the beholder into a contemplative state of reverie

The print "Willows and Poplars, 1871" by Jean Baptiste Camille Corot captures the essence of his artistic style. Combining elements from the classical tradition with a hazy poetic character, Corot creates a dreamlike scene that transports viewers to an idyllic Arcadia. The two figures in the image are completely detached from time and place, inviting contemplation and reverie. Corot's relaxed lines draw beholders into a state of deep introspection as they immerse themselves in this tranquil grove of trees. The composition exudes a sense of serenity and harmony, evoking feelings of peace and tranquility. This lithograph with chine collé showcases Corot's mastery in capturing nature's beauty through delicate strokes and subtle tonal variations.
