About the Item

August-Jules Bouvier (1826–1881) At the Well Oil on canvas At the Well portrays a young, gentle woman standing beside an old stone well, her figure lit softly in the afternoon light. Dressed in flowing rural clothing, she pauses gracefully with one hand resting on the well’s edge, suggesting a moment of quiet reflection in the rhythm of daily life. The surrounding landscape is warm and pastoral—trees, soft greenery, and distant horizon blending into a calm, romantic setting. Bouvier’s delicate brushwork, refined modelling of the face, and subtle use of colour emphasize femininity, serenity, and poetic sentiment, characteristics that define his finest genre paintings. The composition is intimate, tender, and elegant—typical of Bouvier’s charming depictions of idealized rural figures. Not signed . Label attached to frame
