The book offers an in-depth exploration of the Barbizon School's significant collection at the National Gallery in London, featuring key 19th-century French artists like Courbet, Millet, and Rousseau, along with over twenty works by Corot. It includes detailed entries that address the paintings' subjects, styles, and conservation histories. Additionally, essays contextualize these works within the evolution of plein-air painting and their influence on both academic and Impressionist movements, alongside the history of their collection in Britain into the 20th century.
