Lot 150

Description

Circle of Jean Baptiste Camille Corot, 
French 1796-1875- 

Femme nue; 

oil on paper laid down on board, 20.8 x 30.4 cm. 

Provenance: 
Private Collection, UK. 

Note: 
Corot focused on women toward the end of his lengthy career and, in doing so, carried his contemplative designs, soft brushwork, muted palettes, and peaceful, harmonious compositions - the hallmarks of his landscapes - to the female body. The anonymous artist here - almost certainly influenced by the French master - presents a particularly intimate and beguilingly beautiful depiction of a posed model in the artist's studio. While the woman's body is bathed in light, her demurely concealed face remains in shadow.
