Daytime Watering Hole at Well in French Village 19th Century Oil Painting

About the Item

This beautiful painting depicts a crowded scene of a watering hole at a well in the midst of a sunny, hot day, located on the street of a provincial village supposedly located somewhere in the south of France. The beautiful, powerful horses in the foreground are dressed in harness for arable work and somewhat resemble a mixture of the Percheron and Andalusian breeds. While the horses are quenching their thirst, a young driver is talking with a girl who also came to the well for water.
