The artwork titled “Young Girl Seated in a Meadow” was created by Camille Corot between the years 1860 and 1865. Executed using oil on canvas, this piece belongs to the Realism art movement and falls under the landscape genre. It currently resides in a private collection.
The artwork portrays a tranquil, bucolic scene with a young girl seated on the right side of the canvas, gazing upon the serene landscape. She is dressed in a red skirt and a yellow hat, created in muted, natural tones that harmonize with the surroundings. The vast meadow stretches out, scattered with lush green grass and interspersed with wildflowers, while the backdrop features a dense array of trees. A cow can be seen grazing on the left side, adding to the pastoral charm. The reflection of the trees in a small pond further enhances the atmosphere of serenity and timelessness, capturing a brief yet peaceful moment in the midst of nature.
