Laut Christie’s Katalog 2017 wurde dieses Gemälde bereits 2007 von Jean-Jacques Fernier und Sarah Faunce gesehen und authentifiziert.

Unter den Landschaftsbildern Courbets, welche nicht selten dunkel ausfallen, sticht diese „Lichtung“ angenehm hervor. Von rechts her wird der Blick des Betrachters an einem in hellem Grün erstrahlenden Baum auf eine Wiese geführt, an dessen schattigem Rand ein Schäfer Schutz vor der Sonne sucht. Auch dessen Schafe suchen die direkte Sonne zu meiden. Durch diese argumentative Auseinandersetzung mit der Witterung positiviert Courbet in diesem Bild geschickt die verschatteten Partien und vermittelt so in impressionistischem Pinselduktus ein Wohlbehagen.

According to Christie’s catalogue 2017 the painting was examined and authenticated by Jean-Jacques Fernier and Sarah Faunce in 2007.

Within the oeuvre of landscape paintings by Courbet, which tend to be quite dark, this painting of a “clearing” stands out pleasantly.
