"A Gypsy Encampment in a Wooded Landscape by a River, with Several Figures, Donkeys and a Dog in the Foreground" is a 19th-century oil painting by English artist William Joseph Shayer (1811–1892). Known for his landscapes and animal scenes, Shayer's work often reflects the rural life and scenery of the English countryside. This particular painting is a fine example of his genre scenes, capturing the everyday life of a group of gypsies in a naturalistic setting.

The painting is characterized by its detailed depiction of the gypsy figures and their surroundings, showcasing Shayer's skill in rendering both human subjects and animals with accuracy and sensitivity. The composition is carefully constructed, with the figures and animals arranged in the foreground, drawing the viewer's eye into the scene. The encampment is set against a backdrop of a wooded landscape and a river, which adds depth and context to the social narrative of the painting.

Shayer's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to the textures of nature and the varied materials of the figures' clothing and the animals' coats, are noteworthy. The painting is imbued with a sense of tranquility and a timeless quality that is characteristic of Shayer's work. It provides a glimpse into the lives of a community that was often on the margins of 19th-century British society, offering a window into the past through the lens of art.
