Algérienne 1871 - 1873

"Algérienne", painted between 1871 and 1873 by Camille Corot, portrays a young woman in traditional clothing, reclining on a patterned rug in a landscape setting. The painting, which is characteristic of Corot's later style, blends realism with a romanticized depiction of the subject. The loose brushstrokes and soft, muted tones create a sense of atmosphere and evoke the beauty of the Algerian landscape.
