From the collection of Metropolitan Museum of Art
Feeding the Turkey is a 1872 unspecified by Eastman Johnson, a American Impressionism work, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
In the painting, a young woman is shown holding a bowl above her head with her right hand. She wears a white blouse with a black bow at the neck and a long gray skirt. A large black turkey with a red head stands beside her, looking up at the bowl. The woman's left hand is raised, and she appears to be about to feed the turkey. The scene is set against a plain wall, with a window on the right side. The woman's expression is calm and gentle, and the overall mood of the painting is peaceful. This painting is held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Jonathan Eastman Johnson (July 29, 1824 – April 5, 1906) was an American painter and co-founder of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City, with his name inscribed at its entrance.
