Barbaro after the Hunt is a 1858 oil by Rosa Bonheur, a Realism work, held at Philadelphia Museum of Art.
This painting features a white dog with brown spots, sitting on the ground with its head turned to the right. The dog's fur is depicted in various textures, from smooth to fluffy. A black collar with a leash is attached to a hook on the wall behind the dog. To the left of the dog, a black bucket and a brush are visible. The background is a plain wall with some writing on it. The dog's expression appears somewhat sad or tired, and it seems to be looking directly at the viewer. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet contemplation.
