Description: | With warm browns and yellows and two figures resting by a doorway, this sun-bathed farmyard evokes the tranquility of an afternoon in the country. It is also a world in itself, the half-open door only letting the viewer guess at what may lie beyond. Cottin (1823-1886) was an engraver and painter of genre scenes and landscapes. He painted a number of other views of farmyards. | Subjects: | everyday life; figure; animal (poultry) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Cottin, Pierre (French painter, 1823-1886) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9012... | Go to resource |
