EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "River Distant Tower" takes us back to the year 1865, when French artist Camille Corot created this stunning oil canvas masterpiece. Measuring 21 1/2 x 30 7/8 inches (546 x 784 cm), this painting showcases Corot's exceptional talent for capturing landscapes with remarkable precision. Corot, known not only as a painter but also as a writer, faced repeated and habitual criticism from his contemporary art critic Théophile Thoré. However, in this particular artwork, Corot proves that he can excel in anything besides landscape paintings. Conceived within the walls of his Paris studio using stock elements he knew by heart, Corot managed to create an extraordinary scene. In "River Distant Tower" we are transported into a serene setting where silvery trees cluster along the riverbank. The leaden water reflects the tranquility of its surroundings while peasant figures and a boatman add life to the composition. Despite being primarily recognized for his landscapes, Corot demonstrates his versatility and artistic prowess through this piece. The date of creation remains unknown; however, it is evident that every stroke was carefully placed on the canvas with great attention to detail. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate Camille Corot's ability to capture nature's beauty while showcasing his skills beyond traditional landscapes. It serves as a testament to his enduring legacy in the world of art.
