Boat Healer on His Horse - Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot

The tranquil river scene captured in 'Haleur de bateau sur son cheval'
In 'Haleur de bateau sur son cheval', Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot depicts a scene where soft light caresses the water and silhouettes. The composition contrasts the firm line of the figures with the fluidity of the landscape: nuanced skies, subtle reflections, and transparent touches that reveal the morning atmosphere. The palette is based on muted gray-blues and ochres, while the brushwork, both light and precise, suggests the slow movement of the tow. The overall exudes a calm emotion, an elegant melancholy characteristic of Corot's landscapes.
