About the Item

The first engraving depicts a 19th-century hunting scene, with a group of elegantly dressed men, accompanied by dogs and horses, moving through a dense, dramatic forest landscape. A hunter in frock coat and top hat loads a firearm, while hounds flock around him. In the background, a forest of imposing trees with detailed foliage, in subdued light. A pheasant seems to flee, frightened by the presence of the hunters. The second engraving depicts an aristocratic hunting scene. It features an elegant hunter in a blue suit, his horse held by a groom, and two hunting dogs in a neat architectural setting. Both engravings are enhanced by hand and gouache. They are signed lower middle Carle Vernet (1758-1836), a famous French painter and lithographer specializing in scenes of hunting, cavalry and elegant crews, in a style typical of Romantic Realism, which emphasized aristocratic traditions and equestrian art. In blackened and gilded wooden frames. Sight-engraving dimensions: H : 38 cm - W : 49 cm.
