"Boy Jumping a Stream" is a painting by English artist Christopher Wood (1901–1930), known for his distinct style that straddles English primitivism and European post-impressionism. The work is emblematic of Wood's fascination with simplicity and his love for the naive art form, which he encountered during his time in Paris and his travels through Brittany. Painted in the late 1920s, this artwork captures the innocence and joy of childhood through the depiction of a boy in mid-leap over a small body of water.

The painting is characterized by its bold use of color and the reduction of form to its essentials, a technique that Wood admired in the works of French artists such as André Derain and the self-taught painter Henri Rousseau, whose influence is evident in Wood's approach to the subject matter. The composition of "Boy Jumping a Stream" is balanced, with the figure of the boy set against a landscape that is both stylized and evocative of the rural British countryside, reflecting Wood's interest in the pastoral and the idyllic.

Christopher Wood's career was brief but impactful, as he tragically died at the age of 29. Despite his short life, Wood left behind a body of work that has been celebrated for its unique contribution to British art between the wars. "Boy Jumping a Stream" is considered one of his important works, encapsulating the themes of youth, nature, and the pursuit of a pastoral ideal that were central to his oeuvre. The painting is not only significant for its aesthetic qualities but also as a reflection of Wood's personal quest for purity and simplicity in art, a quest that was cut short by his untimely death.

"Boy Jumping a Stream" is held in a public or private collection, and it has been exhibited in various galleries and museums that showcase British art from the early 20th century. The painting continues to be studied and appreciated for its contribution to the development of modern British painting and for the insight it provides into the life and mind of Christopher Wood, one of the most intriguing artists of his generation.
