"Retour De Chasse" (Return from the Hunt) is a painting by Charles Louis Kratke (1848–1921), a 19th-century French artist known for his genre scenes and historical paintings. The work is emblematic of Kratke's attention to detail and his ability to capture the essence of rural life in France during the late 1800s. The painting depicts a scene of hunters returning from a hunt, a common leisure activity among the French gentry and bourgeoisie of the time. The composition typically features figures in period attire, along with their hunting dogs and the day's game, set against a landscape that reflects the natural beauty of the French countryside.

Kratke's mastery of light and shadow, as well as his skillful rendering of textures and materials, such as the lush foliage of the woods, the soft fur of the dogs, and the intricate fabrics of the hunters' clothing, contribute to the painting's realism and its evocative portrayal of the era. "Retour De Chasse" not only reflects the social customs and pastimes of its period but also serves as an example of the genre painting that was popular among the French middle-class art collectors of the time, who favored scenes of everyday life over the more formal historical and mythological subjects.

While the exact date of creation for "Retour De Chasse" is not well-documented, it is representative of Kratke's body of work during his most productive years. The painting is significant for its historical value and its reflection of the artist's technical proficiency and thematic interests. Charles Louis Kratke's works are part of several collections, and they continue to be studied for their contribution to the genre painting tradition in French art history.
