"Le Renard Dans La Basse-cour" (The Fox in the Henhouse) is a painting by the Italian Baroque artist Antonio Maria Vassallo, whose work flourished in the 17th century. Vassallo, known for his genre scenes and still-life paintings, often depicted everyday life with a keen eye for detail and a penchant for narrative elements. This particular painting is a fine example of his skill in capturing the interaction between animals, a subject that was popular during the Baroque period for its allegorical potential and its appeal to the viewer's sense of drama and humor.

The painting portrays the moment of suspense and impending chaos as a fox infiltrates a henhouse, a scene that would have been familiar and entertaining to a 17th-century audience. Vassallo's treatment of the subject matter reflects the Baroque era's fascination with movement, light, and realism. The artist's use of chiaroscuro—a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark—serves to heighten the dramatic effect and to focus the viewer's attention on the central action of the narrative.

While the exact date of creation for "Le Renard Dans La Basse-cour" is not well-documented, it is consistent with Vassallo's body of work from the mid-17th century. The painting is a testament to the artist's ability to convey a story within a single frame, showcasing his mastery of composition and his understanding of animal behavior. The artwork remains an important piece within Vassallo's oeuvre, offering insight into the thematic and stylistic preoccupations of the Genoese school of painting to which he belonged.

As with many works of art from this period, the provenance and current location of "Le Renard Dans La Basse-cour" may not be well-recorded, and its historical journey from the artist's studio to modern-day collections can provide additional context for its significance.
