Michel Hertrich

An oil painting on wood panel made in 1872 by Michel Hertrich. It represents a bucolic scene where a winding river crosses a slightly steep terrain, bordered by meadows and trees. In the background, the sky, dark and cloudy, suggests the approach of a storm, reinforcing the dramatic atmosphere of the composition.

On the left, two cows peacefully settled add a touch of life and rural calm to the whole. The richness of the tones, in particular the contrasts between the green of the foliage, the brown of the banks and the grayish sky, testifies to a great mastery on the part of the artist and a certain taste for the atmospheric effects.
