Beautiful and atmospheric oil painting depicting a classic European countryside scene. The artwork features a traditional red-brick farmhouse with white shutters, a horse grazing in the paddock, and a farmer guiding a pair of oxen or white cattle along a dirt path.

​The artist, R. Vanhoutte, captures the soft, diffused light of a cloudy day with a professional touch. The canvas shows a wonderful texture and age-appropriate craquelure. This piece would be a perfect addition to a rustic, farmhouse-style interior or for a collector of European landscape art.
