The artwork titled “Tree and Chicken Coops” was created by Stanley Spencer in the year 1953. It belongs to the Neo-Romanticism art movement and measures 45.7 x 76.2 cm. This landscape masterpiece is housed at the Tate Modern in London, UK.

Below, the landscape is dotted with a variety of lush bushes and chicken coops, indicating a rural setting. There is a notable contrast between the dark silhouette of the tree and the muted hues of the surrounding foliage and sky, adding depth and character to the scene. The artwork beautifully captures the tranquility and pastoral essence inherent in rural life, imbued with the Neo-Romanticism spirit that defines Stanley Spencer’s distinctive style.
