{"product_id":"barbouyo-rosa-bonheur","title":"Barbouyo - Rosa Bonheur","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed 1879 oil portrait of the artist's dog, Barbouyo, by the French realist painter Rosa Bonheur.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRosa Bonheur, a French painter known for her precise observation of animals, produced this portrait of her dog, Barbouyo, in 1879. The work demonstrates her technical ability to capture the texture of animal fur and the specific character of her subject. Unlike many of her larger, more ambitious compositions depicting livestock or wild animals in motion, this piece is an intimate study. It focuses on the head and shoulders of the dog, set against a muted, neutral background that directs all attention to the animal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBonheur utilised a controlled palette of earth tones, browns, and ochres to render the dog's coat. The brushwork is soft, allowing for a realistic depiction of the shaggy, wire-haired texture of the breed. The dog's expression is calm, with a direct gaze that suggests a familiar relationship between the artist and her pet. The name 'Barbouyo' is inscribed at the top left, while the artist's signature and the date appear in the lower right corner. This painting provides a glimpse into the personal life of an artist who spent much of her career documenting the natural world. It avoids sentimentality, opting instead for a grounded, observational approach that was characteristic of her wider body of work. The lighting is soft and even, avoiding dramatic shadows to maintain a focus on the physical form of the dog. This portrait remains a clear example of Bonheur's skill in animal anatomy and her capacity for capturing individual personality within a realistic framework.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/fidelity-or-portrait-of-ines-augustin-de-saint-aubin\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eFidelity, or Portrait of Ines by Augustin de Saint-Aubin\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/dog-tiffon-johann-adam-klein\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eDog, Tiffon by Johann Adam Klein\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/rosa-bonheur\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eRosa Bonheur prints →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rosa Bonheur","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59147145675087,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59147156357455,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59147156390223,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59147156422991,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59147156455759,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59147156488527,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59147156521295,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59147156554063,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59147156586831,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59147156619599,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59147156652367,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59147156685135,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59147156717903,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59147156750671,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59147156783439,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59147156816207,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59147156848975,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59147156881743,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59147156914511,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59147156947279,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Barbouyo_Poster_CompositorV1_1792125418823.jpg?v=1792294432","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/barbouyo-rosa-bonheur","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
