"Hanging Woodcock" is a still life painting by the American artist Frederick Stone Batcheller (1837–1889), known for his detailed and realistic depictions of game, fruit, and flowers. This particular work exemplifies Batcheller's skill in rendering textures and capturing the nuances of natural light as it falls upon the subject. The painting features a woodcock, a type of game bird, suspended by its feet, a common practice for displaying hunted game. The bird is typically depicted against a neutral background, which serves to highlight the intricate feather patterns and the soft, muted tones of the plumage.

Batcheller's work in "Hanging Woodcock" reflects the tradition of trompe-l'œil painting, a style that aims to deceive the eye with its lifelike representation of objects. The artist's attention to detail and his ability to create depth and realism within the confines of a two-dimensional canvas are hallmarks of his style. This painting not only showcases Batcheller's technical prowess but also provides insight into the cultural practices of hunting and game presentation during the late 19th century in America.

Frederick Stone Batcheller, a native of Providence, Rhode Island, studied in Paris and was influenced by European still life painters. His work was well-received during his lifetime, and he exhibited at various institutions, including the National Academy of Design. "Hanging Woodcock" is representative of Batcheller's contribution to American still life painting and his dedication to capturing the beauty of everyday objects and scenes from nature with a high degree of verisimilitude. The painting is part of Batcheller's broader oeuvre, which remains of interest to collectors and historians of American art, particularly those with a focus on still life and the depiction of game.
