Meisje dat kippen voert in een tuin c. 1900 - 1930

"Meisje dat kippen voert in een tuin" is a sepia-toned photographic print by G.V. Scagen, dating from the early 20th century. The photograph depicts a young girl, dressed in a coat and hat, feeding chickens in a garden setting. The girl stands in the foreground, her focus on the chickens while her surroundings are obscured by a backdrop of foliage and a wooden fence. The work's composition evokes a sense of peacefulness and simplicity, capturing a moment of everyday life in a rural setting. Scagen, a photographer active around the turn of the century, was known for his intimate and often nostalgic photographs of children. This photograph, with its warm tones and sentimental subject matter, reflects Scagen's characteristic style.
