Le loup et le renard (The Wolf and the Fox)

Jean-Baptiste Oudry, pubblicato nel 1759

The image shows a rustic and natural landscape with a wolf and a fox near a rooster. A fence curves towards a river dividing the scene. The horizon is defined by the river and opposite land. The brushstrokes are fine and detailed, creating texture. The color palette includes muted earth tones, greens, blues, and pastel hues for the sky. In the distance, a rural dwelling with a red roof is surrounded by trees and a mountain.
