More about this artwork

Eugène Boudin, known for his marine landscapes and as one of the first French landscape painters to paint outdoors, often explored serene rural scenes with a keen eye for light and atmosphere. "La Provende des Poules," painted in 1876, is a beautiful example of Boudin’s intimate portrayal of everyday life in the countryside.The painting depicts a tranquil scene at a rustic farmhouse. At the center, an elderly woman, dressed in traditional attire, is shown scattering feed to a lively gathering of chickens. The warm tones of the woman’s dress and the vibrant, varied colors of the chickens create a scene full of movement and life. The background features the textured walls of the farmhouse and a lush canopy of trees, imparting a sense of peaceful seclusion. The play of light and shadow, a hallmark of Boudin's technique, bathes the scene in a soft, naturalistic glow, suggesting a late afternoon time.Boudin’s use of swift, expressive brushstrokes captures the rustic charm of the scene, while his attention to detail in the foliage and architectural elements evokes a deep sense of place.

Eugène Louis Boudin (12 July 1824 – 8 August 1898) was one of the first French landscape painters to paint outdoors. Boudin was a marine painter, and expert in the rendering of all that goes upon the sea and along its shores. His pastels, summary and economic, garnered the splendid eulogy of Baudelaire; and Corot called him the "King of the skies".
