Description from the seller
EXCEPTIONALLY NO RESERVE!
A beautiful 20th-century painting depicting two elegant hunting dogs portrayed in a stance of alertness among tall golden grasses, in a composition of great hunting charm and remarkable decorative impact.
The work captures with sensitivity the moment of maximum focus of the two auxiliaries, still and concentrated, as they scour the ground in search of game. The dog in the foreground dominates the scene with a noble and dynamic pose, rendered with particular anatomical care and attention to the details of the spotted coat, while the second specimen emerges in the background, helping to create depth and movement.
The tall grasses swayed by the wind envelop the subjects in a warm and natural atmosphere, characterized by splendid golden and ochre tones that give the composition a pleasant autumnal feel.
The vegetation and shrubs in the background are rendered with soft and harmonious brushstrokes that guide the eye toward the protagonists of the scene.
The artist shows particular skill in the expressive rendering of the animals, emphasising their concentration, elegance and typical hunting posture. The warm color palette and soft light contribute to enhance the whole, making the painting especially pleasing both to hunting-art enthusiasts and to those seeking a decorative piece with strong personality.
The refined golden frame, richly decorated, further enhances the work and underscores its classical and elegant character.
Please note that, given the age of the work, there may be small defects, cracks or missing parts: natural signs of time that attest to its authenticity and history.
The photographs were taken under direct spotlight to highlight the details.
The frame is provided as a courtesy and is not part of the lot: any damage to the frame will not be refunded.
The work will be accompanied by a warranty certificate issued by The Auction Master.
Our shipments are fast and professional with protected packaging; for shipments outside Europe (Schengen area) costs are higher and issues may arise; shipment outside Schengen only with private arrangements at the buyer's expense.
