About the piece

Painted around 1860 by Barbizon school master Charles-François Daubigny, this work captures a serene moment on the banks of the Oise. The composition balances the heavy, textured foliage of the trees with a luminous, expansive sky reflected in the still water, while cattle grazing in the foreground add a sense of quiet pastoral life and grounding weight to the scene.
