Souvenir
Fine Art, Etching, Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot , Souvenir of Tuscany
is an etching by the French artist Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, created around 1845. The etching is also known as Souvenir de Toscane or Memory of Tuscany.
The artwork is a spontaneous and vigorous depiction of a hilly landscape, which is a composite view meant to express the artist's memory of his travels in the Tuscan countryside. The plate for this image was reportedly discovered in a box of nails at Corot's home by fellow artist Felix Bracquemond. This impression was published by the Gazette des Beaux-Arts in 1903.
