About the piece

This 1651 oil panel, a collaboration between Gijsbert d'Hondecoeter and Aelbert Cuyp, captures the character of farmyard life with Dutch Golden Age precision. The composition centers on a proud, tawny rooster surrounded by hens and chicks, set against a muted landscape that emphasizes the rich textures of their plumage.
