“Éveil du Poulailler” – Signed Antique Oil Painting of Barnyard Fowl
Circa 1890–1920 | Oil on Canvas | Gilded Frame (modern)

We've titled this Éveil du Poulailler (Awakening of the henhouse) A flurry of feathers and rustic drama—this richly toned, signed oil painting captures a charming moment in a French or Northern European farmyard, where chickens and doves bustle about in a golden-hued barn interior. 

The subject—a rustic barnyard scene with chickens—is classic for the period and fits squarely into the French or Northern European school of pastoral realism. These types of paintings were extremely popular between 1880–1920 as a celebration of rural life amid increasing industrialization.

The work is painted in the pastoral realist tradition so beloved at the turn of the 20th century, celebrating the rhythms of rural life with lively brushwork and warm, moody light.

The composition draws the eye inward, from the clamor of white hens in the foreground to a curious dove perched up high on a wooden ladder. A tipped barrel, straw-strewn ground, and shadowy barn walls provide depth and atmosphere, while the painter’s skill animates each bird with personality and movement. The signature is clear in the lower, left corner.

Though the ornate frame is a contemporary addition, it pairs beautifully, allowing the timeless quality of the piece to sing.

We're showing this painting among the copper molds and transferware of our Everyday Château, but it’s ready to bring a touch of campagne élégante to yours.
