The story of Sibylle

Sibylle was painted around 1870 and shows a model holding a red rose. Although the title suggests a sibyl, the picture is better described as a portrait, and the Met sees it as the height of Corot's attempts to emulate Raphael, comparing it with the Portrait of Bindo Altoviti. It came to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1929 with the bequest of Louisine Havemeyer.

Camille Corot

Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, or simply Camille Corot, was a French landscape and portrait painter as well as a printmaker in etching. A pivotal figure in landscape painting, his vast output simultaneously referenced the Neo-Classical tradition and anticipated the plein-air innovations of Impressionism.
