Dating from the mid 1850s, the present work depicts the Château de Fontainebleau seen from the south looking across the fishponds toward the Cour de la Fontaine and the Galerie François- Ier. To the right of the composition sits the tiny octagonal Pavillon des Conférences which is supported on a stone foundation in the middle of the pond. While Corot has accurately captured the architectural essence of the Château, the emphasis is not on the descriptive details of the various buildings, but rather an impression of the buildings defined through their reflections in the water. Corot has blurred the actual buildings through his masterful understanding of the play of light on water, and it is through the two mirror renditions of the buildings of this famous landmark that the viewer comes to experience the magical ambiance of the Château and its surrounds.
