About the Item
Pastoral Scene with Young Woman, Donkey, and Turkeys
Oil on canvas
118.5 × 153.5 cm
Original period giltwood frame
This large-scale and finely executed oil on canvas by Ernest Émile Lemenorel depicts a serene pastoral scene set in the French countryside. A young woman stands beneath a blossoming tree, accompanied by a donkey and a group of turkeys that animate the landscape with quiet movement and charm. The composition conveys a sense of harmony between figure, animals, and nature, characteristic of late 19th-century French naturalist painting.
Lemenorel’s refined technique is evident in the subtle modulation of light, the delicate rendering of foliage and blossoms, and the careful treatment of textures, from the animals’ plumage to the softness of the sky and terrain. The background landscape recedes with atmospheric depth, enhancing the tranquil and contemplative mood of the work.
The palette is warm and balanced, dominated by soft greens and earthy tones, reinforcing the timeless quality of the scene. The painting is in excellent condition, housed in its original period frame, richly gilded in gold leaf, and has never been at auction, coming from a private collection.
A highly decorative and important example of French 19th-century pastoral painting, ideally suited for both distinguished traditional interiors and refined contemporary settings.

Romantic French Shepherdess 19th Century Painting by Jean Beauduin
Located in Rochester, NY
French shepherdess at twilight by Jean Beauduin (1851-1916). Oil on canvas mounted on board. Original Barbizon frame. I believe the dog is a bergere Picard.
