Corot's France is a melancholically beautiful place, wan and silvery. He was anything but an avant-garde artist, though he championed Gustave Courbet and was himself celebrated by the poet Charles Baudelaire. This work
'Les maisons Cabassud à Ville d'Avray,' dates from 1840.

Women's Ski Jumping from the World Champs, tonight on Eurosport UK at 19.15.

We will be the last live programme on Eurosport in the UK. I'm finding it quite hard to be honest. The channel played a huge part in my life both personally and professionally. I think of all of the iconic voices (1/2)
