Les biches is a 1851 ink by Karl Bodmer, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a group of deer in a landscape. The deer are gathered together, some standing and some lying down. The background is a hazy, dreamy landscape with trees and hills. The deer are the main focus of the painting, and they are depicted in a very naturalistic way. The artist has captured their movements and expressions very well. The painting has a soft, romantic quality to it. The painting is a great example of Romanticism, and it's held at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
