Geese
1887
Félix Buhot captures a lively rural scene where a flock of geese marches determinedly across a muddy path, while two figures rest under a massive tree on the left. Created in 1887, this etching showcases the artist's Impressionist eye for atmosphere and everyday life in the French countryside. The intricate lines create a moody, textured landscape, from the bare branches to the rustic cottage in the back. At the bottom, you can spot his signature and 'epreuve d'artiste' (artist's proof), revealing this was a special print kept just for the artist himself!
