About the piece
Painted in 1867 by the celebrated Finnish artist Ferdinand von Wright, this oil on canvas captures a rooster and hen with extraordinary precision. The dramatic play of light across the birds' intricate plumage against the rustic, shadowed background exemplifies the naturalist style that made von Wright a prominent figure in 19th-century animal painting.
