Fernand Maillaud (1862–1948) was a distinguished French painter, illustrator, and tapestry designer, renowned for his evocative depictions of rural life and landscapes. Born in Indre, France, Maillaud's artistic journey began at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he honed his skills under the tutelage of prominent artists of the time. His works are characterized by their vibrant use of color, meticulous attention to detail, and a profound sense of realism that captures the essence of the French countryside.

Maillaud's oeuvre spans various mediums, including oil paintings, watercolors, and tapestries, each reflecting his deep connection to nature and rural settings. His paintings often feature pastoral scenes, rustic villages, and everyday activities of rural inhabitants, rendered with a keen eye for authenticity and a heartfelt appreciation for the simplicity of country life. This thematic focus aligns him with the Naturalist movement, which sought to depict the world with a truthful and unembellished perspective.

In addition to his paintings, Maillaud made significant contributions to the art of tapestry, a medium through which he could explore his fascination with texture and pattern. His tapestries are celebrated for their intricate designs and the way they seamlessly blend artistic expression with craftsmanship.

One of Maillaud's notable works is "Ox Cart Fording A Stream," which exemplifies his ability to capture the serene beauty of rural landscapes. The painting depicts an ox-drawn cart crossing a gentle stream, surrounded by lush greenery and bathed in soft, natural light. This scene not only highlights Maillaud's technical prowess but also his deep empathy for the rural way of life, portraying it with dignity and grace.

Throughout his career, Fernand Maillaud exhibited widely, earning acclaim and recognition for his contributions to French art. His works continue to be celebrated for their timeless beauty and their ability to transport viewers to the tranquil and picturesque world of the French countryside.
