Souvenir de Mortefontaine
by Jean Baptiste Camille Carot.
I’m fascinated with this prolific French Artist, who painted this back in 1850.
A tree partially blocks the view and behind, the pond stretches away into a bluish infinity merging with the sky. The gradually emerging atmosphere of spellbinding melancholy is created with a restricted palette in which the pale blues of the sky and water harmonise with the browns and greens of the vegetation. The morning light effects have vanished.
