Superb pair of oils on panel depicting sheep in the barn on a farm, Barbizon School *, signed XIXth century.

These tables are in good condition. They are signed on the lower left (and right very visible), but difficult to read. They are golden wooden frames that go well and that we give to the buyer.

A note: slight accidents on the frames, see photos.

* The Barbizon School

means the geographical and spiritual center of a colony of landscape painters who want to work "from nature". The term takes its name from the village of Barbizon, located on the edge of the Forest of Fontainebleau (Seine-et-Marne), about which some painters flocked for nearly fifty years between 1825 and 1875. Its founding members were Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot, Charles-François Daubigny, Jean-François Millet and Theodore Rousseau. Barbizon painting was one of the sources of inspiration for the Impressionists and the emergence of Impressionism in the second half of the nineteenth due in part to the influence of the painters of the Barbizon school.
