"Fisherman with a Hoop-net (La peche a la truble)" is a print by the French artist Alphonse Legros (1837-1911). The print depicts a fisherman standing in a shallow stream, holding a hoop-net. The scene is set in a wooded area, with tall trees lining the banks of the stream. The artist uses a dark, atmospheric palette to create a sense of solitude and mystery. The print is a fine example of Legros's work, which is known for its realistic depiction of rural life and its use of strong chiaroscuro. The piece is often referred to as a realist work of art, as it was during the rise of Realism that the print was produced.
