Realism

What to look for

Realism: Academic art paints the same skill on idealised subjects; Impressionism keeps the modern subjects but breaks the paint into light, quick strokes.

Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot (16 July 1796 – 22 February 1875), 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. Wikipedia
