About the piece
Painted in 1857 by Barbizon school artist Charles Jacque, this scene depicts a rooster and several hens foraging in a barn. The work is characterized by its earthy palette and masterful handling of light, which filters through the shadows to highlight the varied plumage of the birds and the textures of the scattered hay.
