Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot was a transitional figure in the development of landscape painting. He was immersed in the venerable tradition of French artists in Rome who produced idealized views peopled with small biblical or classical figures, yet he also worked directly from nature. He became associated with the Barbizon School, named after a small village in the Forest of Fontainebleau about thirty miles southeast of Paris. This was an informal collective of artists dedicated to the direct observation of nature and rural life, an idea that was considered avant-garde at the time. Corot and his colleagues were among the first French artists to work almost exclusively en plein air, or outdoors.
