Woman with Peacocks is a 1909 oil by Constant Montald, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium.
In this painting, a woman stands in a lush forest, surrounded by peacocks. She is depicted in the nude, with her back to the viewer. The woman's hair is styled in an updo, and she appears to be gazing downward. The forest is filled with trees, bushes, and flowers, creating a vibrant and colorful atmosphere. The peacocks are scattered throughout the scene, adding to the sense of movement and energy. The painting's use of tempera creates a sense of depth and texture, drawing the viewer's eye into the scene.
