(Le Vallon, avec des paysannes et une vache)
A grass-covered hill descends from the horizon line on the left
to the right-hand bottom corner of the picture. A low hedge with
a clump of trees in the centre divides the grassy plot from the
field rising beyond towards the horizon-line, from which projects
a church in the far distance. The sun is behind the trees, which
throw a deep shadow on the dale. A cow occupies the centre of the
foreground. To the left a group of three peasant women and a child;
to the right a farm labourer.
Signed on left:—“COROT.”
Painted in oil on canvas.
