Notes: Born in Paris and baptized at the St. Louis Cathedral in the French Quarter, Richard Clague, Jr. lived intermittently between the two cities. A student of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, Clague brought the Barbizon tradition of plein-air landscape painting to Louisiana. Accompanied by his students, William Henry Buck and Marshall J. Smith, Jr., he traveled to remote rural south Louisiana communities to paint. In this painting, Clague captured the distinctive Louisiana landscape as a hunter and fisherman in a pirogue venture out for the day.
