Oil on canvas .Attributed behind to Camille COROT (1796 - 1875) .
circa 1850.
One of the masters of Barbizon style . Path in a forest, and people, common subject for Corot. Depending on how this painting is lighted, the effect of brightness of the sun going through the trees and the contrast with shadow is amazing. Showing this on a photo is difficult; one of the most incredible lighting-effect of the collection 100 years of landscapes in France.

Oil on canvas. Signed Jakob MICHIELS (Belgium) XIXth century
circa 1880
A very interesting impressionist painting, capturing a view of a little river and bridge and a water mill, in Barbizon. Eugène GALIEN-LALOUE painted this mill also, that painting being in another gallery of this site . MICHIELS adds here an uncommon touch, with three artists on the bridge, painting or discussing the view.
The bridge facing us is a major point of interest to the Barbizon and the Impressionist schools of art.
