Was Corot a Realist?
1 Answer

Yes, Corot was a Realist. He is particularly well known for his realistic depictions of historical and mythological scenes set in rural landscapes, often depicted beneath hazy rather than idyllic blue skies. Some of his most famous works include Souvenir de Mortefontaine, Orpheus Leading Eurydice from the Underworld and Hagar in the Wilderness.
