"Pique-nique près d'un torrent" (Picnic by a Stream) is an oil painting by French artist Achille-Etna Michallon, created in 1825. Michallon, a notable landscape painter, was a prominent figure in the early 19th-century French art scene and is often credited with being one of the forerunners of the Romantic movement in France. The painting is a quintessential example of his work, showcasing his ability to blend classical landscape composition with the emerging Romantic sensibility.

The artwork depicts a serene natural setting where a group of figures is engaged in a picnic beside a flowing stream. The composition is carefully constructed to lead the viewer's eye through the canvas, using the natural lines of the landscape and the placement of the figures to create a sense of depth and harmony. Michallon's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to the details of the natural world, reflect his training under Pierre-Henri de Valenciennes, who was a proponent of plein air painting—a practice that Michallon adopted and helped to popularize.

"Pique-nique près d'un torrent" is celebrated for its pastoral charm and its reflection of the Romantic era's fascination with nature and the sublime. The painting is a testament to Michallon's skill in capturing the ephemeral qualities of light and atmosphere, which would influence the next generation of landscape artists. It remains an important work in the study of French Romantic landscape painting and is held in high regard for its historical significance and aesthetic beauty.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of a private collection or a museum's permanent collection, and it continues to be the subject of scholarly study and appreciation by art enthusiasts and historians alike.
