This early 20th-century French oil painting captures the lively scene of a proud rooster and four hens at the edge of their roost, rendered in a bold, expressionist style. The artist’s loose, dynamic brushstrokes imbue the chickens with a sense of movement and vitality, while the background of trees and foliage provides a lush, natural setting. The rich colors and energetic composition reflect the artist’s skill, making the scene feel both spontaneous and expertly crafted.

Framed in a dark green painted frame with a deep profile, the piece exudes a rustic charm that enhances its pastoral subject matter. Though unsigned, the painting’s quality speaks to the hand of a talented artist. Wonderfully charming, this piece brings a touch of rural French life into any room, perfect for those who appreciate both art and nature.
