About the Item

Léopold von Besenval (1812–1889), Hunting Party at Dusk Oil on canvas, inscribed with a dedication on the reverse. This evocative 19th-century work by Swiss painter Léopold von Besenval captures a mounted hunting party set against a richly colored twilight landscape. Known for his military and hunting scenes, Besenval’s mastery is evident in the atmospheric sky, careful composition, and finely rendered horses and riders. The painting balances narrative tension and scenic beauty, typical of Besenval’s romantic realism. Presented in a period giltwood frame with minor wear consistent with age.
