Item Overview

Description

French painter and illustrator (1796-1875)

Autograph letter signed, 1 page, 8vo; Coubron, 1.VII.1873. Good condition. Very interesting letter, where Corot gives to his pupil Louis Auguste Auguin (1824-1904), his opinion about one of Auguin's works. He appreciates the general aspect of the painting, but he is not happy about the colours however, he adds, this opinion can be due to his personal taste, presently oriented to the grey. Corot is planning to travel to Bordeaux at the end of September, where he will have the pleasure to meet Auguin.
