Oil on canvas farmyard painting depicting a lively gathering of chickens, roosters, and a prominently perched peacock within a rustic rural setting. The composition centers on the colorful flock arranged along a dirt path and grassy yard, with the peacock elevated on stacked timber near the middle of the scene and its long green tail cascading downward among the birds below. Numerous hens and roosters are rendered in varied plumage of white, black, russet, gold, and iridescent blue-green tones, giving the painting a strong decorative and highly detailed character. Rustic outbuildings, weathered fencing, stacked logs, mature trees, and distant farm structures create a layered country backdrop beneath a softly clouded sky. The artist uses careful modeling and fine brushwork throughout the birds, architecture, and foliage, with areas of heavier texture along the path and vegetation adding depth to the surface. The painting is unframed and presented on its original stretched canvas. There are some light scuffs and minor wear at the corners consistent with handling. Measures 36" x 24".
