The Getty's multimedia-rich exploration of the life and career of French realist Gustave Courbet, whose innovative approach to landscape painting inspired many artists who came after him, including Monet, Cezanne, and Pissarro. Along with biographical notes and numerous examples of his work, the Getty provides a video that demonstrates Courbet's painting techniques and an audio file that examines "La Rouche Pourrie" ("The Crumbling Rock"), explaining Courbet's approach to the subject of the painting. Additional features let you compare and contrast different themes that can be found in Courbet's work.
