Context:
Courbet worked on this landscape while in exile in Switzerland. The view across Lake Geneva towards the Grammant mountains in France seems to echo the artist's longing for his native country. Intended to be shown at the Paris Universal Exposition of 1879, this last major painting by the artist was not finished when he died in 1877. The brownish area at the lower right has scarcely been worked on, but the clouds and snow-covered peaks have been finished in crisp white paint applied with a palette knife.
