"Schapenkudde Voor De Hoeve" (Sheep Flock Before the Farm) is a painting by Belgian artist Henri Houben (1858–1931), known for his realistic depictions of rural life and landscapes in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The painting is a quintessential example of Houben's work, showcasing his ability to capture the serene atmosphere of the countryside and the pastoral activities that define it.

In "Schapenkudde Voor De Hoeve," Houben illustrates a tranquil scene of a shepherd tending to his flock of sheep in front of a farmstead. The composition is characterized by a harmonious blend of natural and man-made elements, with the architectural features of the farm buildings complementing the organic forms of the animals and the surrounding landscape. Houben's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to detail in the rendering of textures—such as the wool of the sheep and the foliage of the trees—demonstrates his skill in capturing the essence of rural life.

The painting is a testament to Houben's mastery of genre painting, a style that focuses on scenes of everyday life. His work often reflects the social and economic realities of the period, providing a window into the lives of the rural working class in Belgium at the turn of the century. "Schapenkudde Voor De Hoeve" not only serves as a picturesque portrayal of pastoral life but also as a historical document of the era's agricultural practices.

Henri Houben's contributions to Belgian art are significant, and "Schapenkudde Voor De Hoeve" is a valuable piece within his oeuvre. The painting is appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and its ability to convey a sense of peace and timelessness, resonating with viewers who are drawn to the idyllic and bucolic aspects of rural existence.
