"An Oil On Canvas, The Harvest, By Agustin Feyen Perrin "
Agustin Feyen Perrin 1826–1888
He trained in Paris at the École des Beaux-Arts, where he was a student of Léon Cogniet, a master renowned for the rigor of his teaching and the quality of his drawing.
Feyen-Perrin became known for his scenes of rural life and his peasant figures, often young Breton women.
He made his debut at the Salon of 1853, and was awarded medals three times in 1865, 1867, and 1874.
Through this work, the artist presents a vision of the rural world that is both realistic and sublime, where working the land becomes a noble and timeless subject.
The painting perfectly illustrates his talent for combining realism, sensitivity, and pictorial harmony, making the scene both simple and deeply expressive.
