Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Le Pere Corot The title of "Père," with which Corot was invested by his many friends, was purely honorary, for he was never wedded, unless it were to his art, and his pictures were the offspring of that union. He was regarded as a sort of spiritual father by the many artists he helped and advised, and he might have furnished an excellent example of the soul´s superiority, for as his body grew older, his spirit seemed to grow younger, and his later pictures are as fanciful and poetic as his earlier ones were sober and severe. The firmly painted view of the Coliseum, which holds its place so well in the Gallery of Modern French Art at the Louvre, was done in his thirtieth year. Some twenty-five sittings from nature were devoted to its production, and during one of these, Theodore Aligny, the landscapist, happened to surprise him. Aligny was so much impressed by its original and serious qualities, that on returning that evening to his companions at the Restaurant della Lepre, he said: "Mes amis, Corot is our master."
