Rooster on a pile of manure - Constant Permeke

The expressive rusticity of Coq sur un tas de fumier, seen by Constant Permeke
The composition immediately imposes a presence: a massive rooster perched on a mound of manure, treated with thick strokes and a dark palette highlighted with earthy accents. The pictorial material, dense and tactile, evokes the raw strength of the countryside while the bird's posture confers an almost monumental dignity to the scene. The subdued lighting emphasizes the volumes and creates an atmosphere both austere and warm, where daily reality turns into peasant poetry. This art print faithfully reproduces the intensity of the colors and the original texture for an immediate and emotional reading.
