"Poetry" is an oil on canvas painting by the French landscape painter Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, created in 1874, during the later years of his career. The painting is an embodiment of Corot's mature style, which blends elements of neoclassicism and realism with the emerging aesthetics of Impressionism. It is one of a series of allegorical works that Corot produced, reflecting his interest in mythological and symbolic subjects alongside his better-known landscapes.

Measuring 130.2 x 89.5 cm, "Poetry" is part of a quartet of paintings representing the four times of the day, each associated with a different form of art. In this work, Corot personifies Poetry as a contemplative female figure, draped in flowing robes and situated in a dreamlike, pastoral landscape that is characteristic of his poetic vision of nature. The figure is often interpreted as a muse, gazing into the distance, possibly symbolizing inspiration and the creative process.

The painting is noted for its ethereal quality and subtle interplay of light and shadow, which creates a sense of tranquility and timelessness. Corot's use of a restrained color palette, with soft greens, blues, and earth tones, contributes to the overall serenity of the composition. The brushwork is loose and expressive, a technique that would influence the Impressionists, who admired Corot for his innovative approach to capturing the effects of light and atmosphere.

"Poetry" is held in a public collection, allowing for its continued study and appreciation. It is often cited as an example of Corot's ability to transcend the boundaries of genre, combining landscape painting with figurative work to explore the more intangible aspects of human experience and emotion. The painting is a testament to Corot's enduring legacy as a pivotal figure in the transition from traditional to modern art, and it continues to be celebrated for its beauty and evocative power.
