Gustave Courbet Animal Paintings
French, 1819-1877
Gustave Courbet (1819–1877) was a pioneering French painter and the leading figure of the Realist movement in 19th-century art. Rejecting the idealized subjects of Romanticism, Courbet sought to depict the world directly and truthfully, portraying landscapes, workers, peasants, and scenes of everyday life with bold naturalism.
A Bay with Cliffs (c. 1869) exemplifies his mastery of seascapes, where rugged coastlines and crashing waves reflect both the power of nature and Courbet’s ability to convey atmosphere with dramatic brushwork. His marine paintings often pushed beyond simple observation, capturing a sense of raw energy and mood that influenced later Impressionists.
Courbet’s career was marked by both critical success and political controversy—he was outspoken, independent, and determined to place art at the service of social truth. Today, his works, including A Bay with Cliffs, remain central to the story of modern art, bridging traditional realism and the innovations that shaped Impressionism.1
