Eugène Verboeckhoven's creative period coincided with a historical era marked by great upheavals. After long struggles, Belgium declared its independence from the Netherlands and Brussels became the capital of the kingdom. Eugène was barely more than thirty years old at the time and had allowed himself to be deeply involved in the fight for independence. Until this event, Verboeckhoven had spent his time searching. Already in the 17th century, Dutch artists had chosen animals as a motif. Eugène found inspiration in the horse depictions of Adriaen van de Velde and Abraham van Calraet. Anthony van Dyck also shows attempts to place animals in the choice of motif. Eugène Verboeckhoven goes on a journey and collects sketches. He fills countless books with sketches of individual animals and figures. His aim is to paint in a naturalistic manner. The reproduction should be lifelike and free from distortion and interpretation. The approach of naturalism is already shown by earlier epochs. The further development in painting and emerging prosperity at the beginning of the 19th century lead to a renaissance of the naturalistic painting style.
Verboeckhoven created landscapes in his studio. Animals are a recurring theme. He drew from his repertoire of sketches and put them together like a puzzle. A vivid blue sky is characteristic, the effect of which the artist achieved by adding lapis lazuli. The depictions of animals testify to the painter's good powers of observation; his talent makes the paintings radiate with a romantic atmosphere. City dwellers with high purchasing power show great interest in the. The works harmonize with the well-equipped salons and are free of indecency. a painting by Verboeckhoven is an idyll and not a social affront. Eugène Verboeckhoven was not only an artist, but also a businessman, and legends say that the price of a painting depended on the number of animals in it. Less well-off art collectors got a smaller herd. A characteristic stylistic device of Verboeckhoven is a low horizon. The viewer is thus led to a level that evokes closeness and emotions. Verboeckhoven already polarized during his lifetime, some people were enthusiastic, so Vincent van Gogh wrote to his brother from a journey ...the beautiful things, also terrible things like life-size cows from the God-fearing Verboeckhoven....
A great follower of animal painting was the Belgian king. Eugène Verboeckhoven was commissioned to paint the Queen's dog. There is no record of how many paintings King Leopold I acquired. This was later followed by a commission for a portrait of a rider and the appointment of the painter as Knight of the Order of Leopold.
