"Souvenir of Ariccia" (Italian: Ricordo di Ariccia) is a landscape painting by the French artist Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, created during the mid-19th century. Corot, a pivotal figure in landscape painting, is often considered a bridge between the neoclassical tradition and the Impressionist movement that would later emerge. This work is one of several Italian landscapes painted by Corot, reflecting his travels and the influence of the Italian countryside on his artistic development.

The painting depicts a serene scene near Ariccia, a town in the Alban Hills close to Rome, an area that was a popular subject for artists, particularly those associated with the Barbizon School, with which Corot had connections. "Souvenir of Ariccia" is characterized by its soft light, subtle color palette, and the harmonious interplay between nature and the human presence within it. Corot's work captures the tranquility of the location, with its lush vegetation and the gentle play of light through the trees, which was a hallmark of his plein air painting technique.

Corot's Italian landscapes, including "Souvenir of Ariccia," were influential in their departure from the grand, historical landscapes that had dominated French painting. Instead, Corot focused on the simple, everyday beauty of the natural world, which he rendered with a poetic sensibility that was admired by his contemporaries and would inspire future generations of artists.

The painting is held in high regard for its contribution to the development of landscape painting and is frequently studied for its innovative approach to light and atmosphere. "Souvenir of Ariccia" is not only a testament to Corot's skill and sensitivity as a painter but also a reflection of the 19th-century artistic exploration of the natural world and the emergence of plein air painting as a central practice for modern artists.
