In the Dunes: Souvenir of The Hague (Dans les dunes: Souvenir du bois de La Haye)

Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a landscape with rolling hills, trees, and structures under a vast sky. The horizon line is low, with hills and buildings along it. The artwork is detailed, with cross-hatched lines. The color palette is monochromatic, primarily grayscale. Closest to us are shadowy trees on the left side, depicted with dense lines, contrasting with the lighter sky and open landscape in the distance.
