AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Oil on Panel, Signed.

A lively depiction of Oriental falconers on horseback in a wide, open landscape. Three riders on the right draw the eye with their colorful garments and carefully rendered horses. One carries a bird of prey on his raised hand, while other birds high in the sky pursue their prey. Smaller figures on horseback on the horizon enhance the sense of depth.

The low horizon leaves ample space for the light, cloud-filled sky. Warm red and brown accents contrast with the cool blues and grays of the surroundings. The clothing, horses, and hunting scene lend the work an Orientalist character. The dark, decorated frame provides a striking border for the bright composition.

Canvas dimensions: 30 cm high by 40 cm wide
Frame dimensions: 40 cm high by 50 cm wide

Seller's Story

My name is Reinoud Sprong, 25 years old and living in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. From a family of three brothers and two enterprising parents, I developed a passion for art and antiques at a young age. I attended the major art fairs, and visited museums. I also started reading early about art that particularly interested me. That led to pursuing a Bachelor in History at Utrecht University, after which my master’s in Art, Market and Connoisseurship at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam crowned the academic level of art. Since my youth I have had a fondness for trade and entrepreneurship. From my own disco, catering and various side ventures it was time for the real trade: Art and Antiques! Through my early interest I was able to do many different sniffing/internship experiences and gain field experience. After a six-month internship as junior expert in classical arts at the fastest growing European online auction house Catawiki I was sure; Reinoud would establish an official art dealing business for himself. I began with purchases at auctions, online marketplaces and visited markets. The first storage is located in my grandmother’s garage and thus the adventure began. Now, a little further on and I’m quite proud of how far we’ve come in a short time. We have clients worldwide and grow slowly. By actively engaging on social media we try, through our videos, to enthuse the younger generation for art and antiques. Currently we work from a small storage space that is almost always full. Clients are warmly welcome here by appointment! In the future we hope to be able to offer a larger collection of furniture and fine art. My goal is to open a large showroom in a characterful building, where we can welcome all clients. - Follow Art_Leap_Curation on Instagram!
