    19th-Century French School

    Chevreuils En Forêt

    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.
