Parisian Service (Haviland service) is a 1875 by Félix Bracquemond, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a few birds perched on bare branches. The lines are loose and quick, almost like they were drawn fast. One bird is mid-flight, wings spread wide. The background is mostly empty, just a few scattered leaves. The artist focused on simple shapes and light shading. The birds look real but are drawn with minimal detail—just enough to recognize them. If you like this style, check out Impressionism next.
Félix Henri Bracquemond (French pronunciation: ; 22 May 1833 – 29 October 1914) was a French painter, etcher, and printmaker.
