About the Item
Samuel Raven (British, 19th Century)
Setters Flushing Game in an Upland Landscape
Oil on panel, circa 1830
Presented in a deeply moulded and carved giltwood frame of the period
This finely rendered early 19th-century sporting scene by Samuel Raven captures a moment of heightened alertness and natural grace. Two English Setters, their coats flecked in white and chestnut, press forward through rough upland heath, their bodies low, muscles taut, and gaze fixed ahead. The gathering storm beyond the hills—depicted with darkening clouds and a brooding sky—adds a dramatic tension to the composition, underscoring the instinct and energy of the dogs as they flush unseen birds from cover.
Samuel Raven, a painter known for his meticulous treatment of both animal form and landscape, demonstrates here a deep understanding of sporting life and canine anatomy. His brushwork is detailed yet atmospheric: the land rises and rolls with naturalistic variety, while the light picks out the glint on the dogs’ fur and the glimmer of distant fields. The mood is one of anticipation—poised between stillness and motion, weather and action.
Framed in a superb original giltwood frame, carved with rococo scrollwork and floral flourishes, this work is as much a decorative gem as it is a testament to Britain’s 19th-century field sports tradition. Raven’s works are prized for their intimacy and their evocation of a vanished sporting world where man and dog worked closely upon the land.
A rare and beautifully preserved piece, ideal for collectors of sporting art, canine portraiture, or those wishing to add a refined and historically rooted accent to a traditional interior.

Animal scene Duck hunting with dogs 18th century Swedish Master by Philip Korn
Located in Stockholm, SE
Monogrammed lower left: Johan Philip Korn (1728 - 1796), was a Swedish painter. A beautiful landscape, with a backwater in which carefree ducks swim, hunters and their dogs in passion, in the background you can see a city with a bell tower. Old masters have been depicting animals in their paintings since the Renaissance. In those days, hunting scenes were popular - there is always a share of emotional participation in them. Here it is necessary to understand that in previous centuries people looked at hunting as a means of obtaining food, therefore naturalism dominates in the painting of the old masters. Old oil painting on wooden panel, in a non-original frame of the 19th century.
Size app.: 49 x 64 cm (roughly 19.3 x 25.2 in) and nice golden gesso frame ca 65.5 x 81.5 cm (roughly 25.8 x 32.1 in). Very Good condition, age wear, cracks on a wooden board, minor losses, retouches, cleared and conserved. Please study good resolution images for overall cosmetic condition. In person actual painting may appear darker or brighter than in our pictures, strictly depending on sufficient light in your environment. Weight of app. 6.4 kg is going to measure some 10 kg volume weight packed for shipment.
Johan Philip Korn first began his career as a decorative painter. He was a student of artist Johan Sevenbom (1721-1784). After further studies he changed to landscape painting in the Rococo style of French artist François Boucher (1703–1770) and often after Dutch copper engravings. In 1759, Korn became master of the Stockholm...
