About the piece

Painted in 1872, this work by Charles-François Daubigny exemplifies the Barbizon School's devotion to the natural world. Cattle graze peacefully along the bank of a stream as the horizon glows with the last light of sunset, creating a sense of enduring calm and rustic beauty through masterful brushwork.
