Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot (UK: KORR-oh, US: k?-ROH, kor-OH, French: [??~ batist kamij k??o]; July 16, 1796 – February 22, 1875) was a French landscape and portrait painter as well as a printmaker in etching.
He is a pivotal figure in landscape painting and his vast output simultaneously references the Neo-Classical tradition and anticipates the plein-air innovations of Impressionism.
