Twilight Landscape with Windmill and Church, 1891
Located in Stockholm, SE
"Twilight Landscape with Windmill and Church" is a captivating work by Swedish artist Albert Larsson, painted in 1891 when Larsson was 22 years old. The painting captures a landscape steeped in the quietude of dusk, with a sky ablaze in hues of red and orange, signalling the end of the day. The silhouettes of trees are rendered with astonishing detail against the twilight sky, showcasing Larsson's early mastery of light and shadow. Dominating the pastoral scene is a traditional windmill, its blades stilled against the sky, alongside the spire of a church that pierces the horizon. These structures, together with the meticulously painted trees, are testaments to the human presence within the natural world, suggesting a harmony between the two. A notable feature is the small water-filled furrow in the field, which catches the fading light of the sky, creating a pathway of reflection leading the eye through the composition. This detail highlights Larsson's skill in using light to draw attention to elements within his paintings. Albert Larsson, born on November 4, 1869, in Malmö and passing on August 31, 1952, in Lund, was an artist deeply influenced by his education in Copenhagen at the Art Academy and later at Peder Severin Krøyer...

English 19th century men bird shooting in a landscape, with dogs and horse
By John Nost Sartorius 1
Located in Woodbury, CT
John Nost Sartorius (British, 1759–1828) Men Out Bird Shooting in a Woodland Landscape, circa 1820 Oil on wooden panel, in a fine antique gilt frame Unsigned A finely observed early 19th-century sporting picture by John Nost Sartorius, one of the most respected figures in the English tradition of animal and sporting painting. The composition depicts a quiet moment in the field: a sportsman advancing through woodland with his gun, accompanied by attentive pointers, their forms crisply picked out against the darker recesses of the forest. Sartorius was celebrated for his ability to combine accurate animal portraiture with atmospheric landscape settings, and this work is characteristic of his mature period. The dogs are rendered with anatomical confidence and individual character, while the surrounding woodland is handled with a restrained, naturalistic palette that lends depth and calm to the scene. The narrative is understated and refined, intended as much for contemplation as for sporting reference. Painted on a wooden panel, as was common for Sartorius’s smaller and more intimate works, the picture retains a pleasing surface quality and detail. It is housed in an antique gilt frame of appropriate date, enhancing its presence and lending a strong period feel. Works by Sartorius were highly sought after by country house patrons in the early 19th century and were often commissioned to record favourite dogs or shooting grounds. Today, paintings of this type remain especially appealing to collectors of British sporting art and sit equally well in traditional country house interiors or more formal libraries and studies. A confident and decorative example of English sporting painting...

A Winter Scene, Alexis De Leeuw, 1848 – 1883 Bruges, Belgian Painter, Signed
By Alexis De Leeuw
Located in Knokke, BE
A brilliant work of nostalgia by Belgian Romantic Alexis de Leeuw. An incredibly fine painting that was been beautifully preserved through the years, capturing a crisp glimpse into the rustic beauty of winter in the late 19th century. The scene is set at golden hour as the sun is setting and a full spectrum of pinks, oranges, purples, and blues cascade across the cloudy skies. The nature and especially rural life are depicted in a very idyllic way. A Winter Scene Alexis De Leeuw 1848 – 1883 Bruges Belgian Painter Signature: Signed bottom right Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: Image size 99 x 76,50 cm, frame size 125 x 102 cm Biography: De Leeuw Alexis was born in 1848. He was a Belgian painter of genre scenes and romantic winter landscapes, richly decorated with figures and animals. He also painted several pastoral landscapes. Almost nothing is known about his life, although he was successful, given the quality and scope of his oeuvre. Alexis de Leeuw was influenced by the Dutch Romantics and specialized in an idyllic winter landscape with horses and dogs. Alexis De Leeuw painted until 1883 and spent many years living and working in England. He exhibited in the 1860s at the Royal Academy, the British Institute of Art, the galleries of Suffolk Street and the Royal Hiberian Academy. His winter scenes were widely used to produce Christmas and greeting cards. He was one of the Belgian representatives of the ‘horse genre’, to which Wouterus Verschuur...
