"Nu Allongé" (Reclining Nude) is a captivating painting by the renowned French artist Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, created around 1860-65. Corot, primarily celebrated for his landscape paintings, was also a master of figure painting, and "Nu Allongé" stands as a testament to his versatility and skill in capturing the human form. This work is particularly notable for its delicate balance between realism and idealism, a hallmark of Corot's approach to figure painting.

The painting depicts a nude female figure reclining on a draped surface, her body gracefully contoured and bathed in soft, diffused light. The composition is both intimate and serene, with the subject's relaxed pose exuding a sense of tranquility and natural beauty. Corot's use of light and shadow is masterful, creating a luminous effect that enhances the three-dimensionality of the figure. The subtle gradations of tone and the careful attention to anatomical details reflect Corot's deep understanding of the human form and his ability to render it with both sensitivity and precision.

"Nu Allongé" also exemplifies Corot's ability to blend classical influences with a modern sensibility. The painting draws inspiration from the tradition of the reclining nude in Western art, a motif that dates back to ancient Greece and Rome and was revitalized during the Renaissance. However, Corot infuses this classical subject with a contemporary freshness, eschewing the idealized perfection of earlier nudes in favor of a more naturalistic and approachable representation.

This work is part of Corot's broader oeuvre, which includes a significant number of figure studies and portraits, although they are less well-known compared to his landscapes. "Nu Allongé" is a prime example of how Corot's figure paintings contribute to his legacy as a versatile and influential artist of the 19th century. The painting is held in high regard and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic merit and its place within the broader context of Corot's work and 19th-century French art.
