"Passing Clouds" is an oil painting by the French landscape artist Théodore Rousseau (1812–1867), a leading figure of the Barbizon school. This work is characteristic of Rousseau's fascination with the natural world and his desire to capture the transient effects of light and atmosphere. Created in the mid-19th century, the painting reflects Rousseau's commitment to plein air painting, where artists would paint outdoors to directly engage with the landscape.

The painting depicts a rural scene under a dynamic sky, where the interplay of light and shadow is rendered with meticulous attention to detail. Rousseau's skill in portraying the changing moods of nature is evident in "Passing Clouds," as he captures the momentary effect of sunlight filtering through the clouds onto the landscape below. The composition is balanced with a horizon that draws the viewer's eye into the depth of the scene, while the clouds provide a sense of movement and impermanence.

Rousseau's work was influential in the development of landscape painting, and "Passing Clouds" exemplifies his innovative approach to capturing the essence of the natural environment. His dedication to realism and the portrayal of nature without idealization was a departure from the classical landscapes of his predecessors. This painting, like many of Rousseau's works, would have resonated with contemporary audiences who were increasingly interested in the untamed aspects of the French countryside as an antidote to urbanization.

"Passing Clouds" is held in high regard for its technical proficiency and its embodiment of the Barbizon school's ethos. The painting is part of a larger body of Rousseau's work that contributed to the recognition of landscape painting as a significant genre in the fine arts. It remains an important example of 19th-century French landscape art and is studied for its contribution to the evolution of naturalism in painting.
