The Mill of Cuincy, near Douai (Le Moulin de Cuincy, pres Douai)

Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a landscape with a focus on trees and a house. The viewpoint is from a low angle, and the horizon is above the midpoint. The house is in the distance among tall trees. The painting is done in a loose, sketch-like style with fine lines and shading for texture. The color scheme is mainly sepia tones. A lake in the foreground reflects the trees, guiding the viewer's focus towards the house. The sky in the background has soft lines hinting at clouds.
