Frederik Rohde, Rural Scene With Chickens
A fine mid-19th-century oil painting depicting a rural scene with chickens, buildings and figures by Danish golden age painter, Frederik Rohde (1816-1886).
Rohde’s treatment of light here is sublime. Note how he’s lit the indent on the right-hand side of the building along with the track beyond the figure. This technique gives the scene depth and pulls us closer towards it. The composition is also beautifully balanced even though the track is uneven and heading upwards.
Frederik Rohde trained at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen and remains highly regarded for his exquisite landscapes. There’s a chance that this particular piece was created during a trip to Italy in the 1860s. The architecture and scenery are reminiscent of his other works from this period.
Rohde is also known for training the great Vilhelm Hammershøi (1864-1916) during the early part of his life.
The painting is monogrammed in the lower left and housed within a period frame.
Medium: Oil on canvas laid on board
Overall size: 18” x 14½” / 45cm x 37cm
Year of creation: c. 1865
Provenance: Denmark
Condition: Very presentable. Frame with some age-related wear.
Artist’s auction highlight: £5,510 achieved for ‘Udsigt mod Joenstrup Seminarium’ in 2004. Brave Fine Art is a boutique art dealership based in the picturesque Malvern Hills, England. Established in 2017, our clients include private collectors and interiors designers throughout the UK, USA and Canada.
We tend to focus on decorative art that captures the imagination - from monumental 17th-century portraits through to characterful vintage landscapes. Every piece in the collection has an interesting story to tell and we work hard to discover the hidden history behind each one.
You may have seen us mentioned in popular magazines such as Vogue, Livingetc and Homes & Gardens. It’s always exciting to spot a piece we recognise in a beautiful home or place of work.

Terms and conditions
Please be assured that we inspect every painting, drawing or print to check for issues relating to its condition during its time here with us. When we notice a fault or potential problem, we will note this down on the item's condition report, which can be found within each listing. We take various steps to ensure that your artwork will stand the test of time but we're unable to offer any warranties or guarantees as we're just one custodian in a potentially long line of previous owners.
Our inspections include a check for any signs of woodworm, historic or otherwise, as this is not unusual in antique frames or stretchers. If we discover any small holes, we treat the wood with a solution which states that "its deep penetration ensures effective protection for many years and prevents re-infestation". With this in mind, it's very unlikely that any future issues will occur, especially given that the wood may also have been treated by previous owners. However, as mentioned above, we are unable to provide any warranties or guarantees - just be assured that we care.
Also, many of the paintings include hanging equipment, namely wire or string. Sometimes this is already present when we purchase an item so we check to see if it's been attached correctly. However, we can't test the durability of this equipment as many of the paintings are sold quickly. So please do seek any advice if you're unsure how to hang your paintings correctly, especially if they're heavy, and do check on them from time to time.
If you have any questions at all, please just ask.
