Italian Woman (La Morieri)

Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot · c. 1872 · oil on canvas ·  Accession ID  1954.6.1

The image shows a landscape with a horizon in the lower third of the composition. On the left side of the image, there are trees along a canal. In the center is a dirt path and a person riding a donkey who looks over their shoulder towards the viewer. On the right side, there are white buildings in the distance and a grassy field. The light blue sky is filled with fluffy clouds, and the water of the canal reflects the sky and trees. The brushstrokes of the painting are thick and visible, especially in the sky.
