Willows and Poplars summarizes Corot’s aesthetic, combining elements from the classical tradition from which he evolved with the hazy poetic character of his mature style. The dream of Arcadia is suggested by the two figures, utterly removed from time and place, reclining under the grove of trees. The line is so relaxed that it draws the beholder into a contemplative state of reverie.
