From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
The High-Fired Service: Rooster (counterproof) is a 1860 by Félix Bracquemond, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a rooster in profile, facing left. The rooster's feathers are depicted in bold, expressive lines, with a focus on texture and movement. The image is rendered in a range of grays, with darker tones used to create depth and dimension. The rooster's head is turned slightly, as if looking over its shoulder. Its beak is open, and its eyes are alert. The feathers on its neck and back are ruffled, giving the impression of movement and energy. The painting's use of bold lines and expressive brushstrokes creates a sense of dynamism and vitality. The artist's focus on texture and movement adds depth and interest to the image.
