Painting Collection Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot The Wagon of Arras The Wagon of Arras 1853-54 oil on canvas 23 1/2 x 34 1/2 inches The Wagon of Arras, one of Corot's later works, is somewhat typical of Corot as he explores what he always preferred to study – the relationship between nature and people. One would be hard pressed to position the subject matter in time as it is devoid of any reference to either Modern or Classical, the objective being to communicate emotion through the unstructured informality of composition with the emphasis on form and tone at the expense of detail. |
