    This charming late 19th-century French School oil painting depicts a forest view with deer.

    Stylistically, it fits with the approach taken by the Barbizon school of artists who were active between 1830-1870. These were some of the first to truly embrace painting outdoors and they’re seen as a precursor to the French impressionists.

    Many of their works were created in the forest of Fontainebleau near the village of Barbizon. The composition is particularly reminiscent of those by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot (1796-1875), so perhaps the artist was a follower.

    Signed illegibly in the lower left and held within a gilt frame.

    Conservation & History

    We care profoundly about our role as custodians and every piece in the collection has been assessed by our conservator. When required, we undertake professional restoration carefully using reversible techniques and adopt a light touch to retain the aged charm of each work. We also restore frames rather than replace them as many are original and selected by the artists themselves.
