This painting and its pendant (35.40.2) were commissioned by François Bergeret de Frouville, a financier whose older brother was a major patron and collector of contemporary art at the end of the ancien régime. Robert, who excelled at the depiction of ruins, was often criticized for his ability to paint figures. He has copied the woman riding sidesaddle directly from the elder artist François Boucher.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/437479\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York - The Return of the Cattle\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hubert Robert","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":49887743967475,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (80 3\/4\" x 48\")","offer_id":49887744000243,"sku":null,"price":5620.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (23 1\/4\" x 13 7\/8\")","offer_id":49887744033011,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (28 3\/8\" x 16 7\/8\")","offer_id":49887744065779,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (34 3\/4\" x 20 3\/4\")","offer_id":49887744098547,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (44 7\/8\" x 26 3\/4\")","offer_id":49887744131315,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (53 7\/8\" x 32 1\/8\")","offer_id":49887744164083,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (63 1\/2\" x 37 7\/8\")","offer_id":49887744196851,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (76 1\/4\" x 45 1\/2\")","offer_id":49887744229619,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/TheReturnoftheCattle.jpg?v=1783668609","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/the-return-of-the-cattle","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
