Description
This elegant pastoral landscape, attributed to the celebrated French Rococo master François Boucher (1703–1770), captures a picturesque countryside scene, likely inspired by the idyllic rural surroundings of Beauvais. The composition presents a tranquil riverside setting, featuring charming cottages, lush greenery, and figures engaged in leisurely activity, embodying the refined, idealized vision of rural life that was popular in 18th-century French art.
At the center of the painting, a small wooden boat carrying elegantly dressed figures drifts along the calm waters, while a standing figure on the shore appears to be serenading or reading. The architectural details, such as the conical thatched roof and rustic bridges, add a fairy-tale quality, characteristic of Boucher’s decorative approach to landscape painting.
Boucher, known primarily for his mythological and allegorical compositions, also created pastoral landscapes imbued with romanticism and theatricality, catering to the taste of aristocratic patrons, including Madame de Pompadour. This piece reflects his ability to infuse natural scenes with elegance, warmth, and a touch of fantasy, aligning with the Rococo movement’s fascination with pleasure, escapism, and the beauty of nature.
Provenance & Condition
Framed in an ornate gilded frame, which enhances its period authenticity and decorative appeal.
Patina and minor wear, consistent with age.
The presence of a frame plate with the inscription "François Boucher" suggests a historical attribution, though further authentication is recommended for scholarly or investment purposes.

Feeding a Calf Lovely Farm Scene with Redhead Girl mid 19th Century Oil Painting
Located in Stockholm, SE
As we gaze upon this artwork, we are immediately struck by the warmth and tenderness exuding from the scene. The woman, with a gentle smile on her face, carefully feeds the pet calf, while the redhead girl, her eyes sparkling with excitement, reaches out to touch the adorable creature. The artist's attention to detail is impeccable, with each brushstroke conveying a sense of life and movement to the painting. Nevertheless, the beauty of this painting lies not only in its technical prowess but also in the emotions it evokes. Visual research gets us to authorship of Walter Goodall (1830 - 1889) an British painter. But since the painting is not signed apparently – it is hard to state for sure. Antique oil painting on canvas with stamp for 'Brodie & Middleton, 79 Long Acre...
