*-This is part of a well known painting. Please could I have help identifying the artist.

As with your other questions, I get the impression this is schoolwork and I don't want to just give you the answer. But here's a pointer to something even better... Put the image into Google's reverse image search and it will point you to the full version of the painting. You put the image in by clicking the little camera icon inside the search box, and then either uploading an image or putting in the URL of an image on the web.

It only works about half the time, in my experience, but I tried it with your picture and Google successfully identified it as part of a painting by Corot,

Thank you John. This is such useful information. I never knew this was possible and I will certainly give it a try.
