Although this painting entered the National Gallery’s collection as a work by Corot himself, it is now thought to be by an imitator. The restrained colours and thin application of paint contrast with Corot’s juxtapositions of bright colour in his own late portrayals of women. This work probably dates from the early years of the twentieth century, a period when the appeal of Corot’s late silvery landscapes was on the wane, and the demand for his late figure paintings was on the rise.
