About the Item
This impressive Old Master oil painting, created in the early 18th century, is attributed to Jan Pieter van Bredael the Younger, a renowned Flemish artist who lived at the turn of the 17th-18th centuries. The composition captures with striking mastery and detail the drama and intensity of a cavalry battle, depicting mounted warriors engaged in fierce combat against a majestic landscape backdrop, with fallen soldiers and riderless horses scattered across the foreground. The artist masterfully conveys the chaos of battle while maintaining excellent compositional balance, characteristic of the finest military paintings of this period. Rich tones and atmospheric perspective create depth in the valley landscape where the battle unfolds, while the detailed rendering of period costumes, weaponry, and horse harnesses demonstrates exceptional technical skill. This substantial work represents one of the finest examples of battle painting from that era, when such historical scenes were highly prized by European nobility.

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...
