Souvenir of Italy (Souvenir d'Italie)

Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot

National Gallery of Art

This print shows a landscape with a low horizon line visible on the left, a domed building faintly visible in the distance beyond rolling hills. The right side is filled with tall, leafy trees. Swirling clouds are seen in the sky above the scene, and the ground is covered in dark, cross-hatched lines. There is a shape near the bottom left corner that might be a person, but it is hard to identify. There is a line of text below the bottom of the print. The background of the print is beige paper.
