About the Item
Charles Verlat (1824–1890)
"Snarling Fox"
This dramatic oil painting by Charles Verlat, a prominent 19th-century Belgian artist, captures a striking and emotionally charged depiction of a snarling fox. The artist’s masterful brushwork and chiaroscuro technique heighten the tension in the scene, emphasizing the raw intensity of the animal’s expression. Rendered with remarkable realism, this composition reflects Verlat’s expertise in animal painting, a genre in which he excelled alongside his well-known history and portrait works.
Verlat was a distinguished painter and professor at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, where he influenced a generation of artists. He gained international recognition for his skillful depictions of animals, particularly in hunting and dramatic wildlife scenes, often imbued with a psychological depth that set them apart from mere studies of nature. His work remains highly regarded among collectors of 19th-century European art.
