VENCESLAO WEHRLIN (Italy, 1746 (?) -1780)."Hawk Hunting a Baby Duck".Oil on canvas.Signed at lower left.Provenance: private collection conceived since the 70's between London and Madrid.Measurements: 63 x 92 cm.In this scene starred by animals the author is inspired by the painting of baroque tradition, although with a style typical of the 19th century. Stylistically, the emphasis of the drawing prevails, the brushstroke being inscribed within the precise contours. However, the colour acquires an intense plasticity. It is presented as a scene of live animals in full activity.

PETER SNAYERS (Antwerp, 1592-Brussels, 1667)"The Siege of Bohemia.Oil on canvas. Re-tinted.It has restorations and repainting on the pictorial surface.Provenance: private collection conceived since the 1970s between London and Madrid.Measurements: 198 x 258 cm.Warlike image in which the scene is represented from a zenithal point of view as it is usual in Peter Snaryer's painting. Compositionally, the author reduces the area of the sky in such a way that he can create a panoramic view built in depth in which to arrange a large number of characters. Despite the profusion of elements; military camps, architecture, vegetation and characters, the author uses geometry in a masterly manner, creating an order that allows a coherent and calm reading. In order to arrive at this type of realistic and precise composition, Snayers relied on official military maps, reliable war reports and artistic inventions by other artists. His artistic sources included engravings by Georg Braun, Frans Hogenberg, Jacques Callot and works by Peter Paul Rubens.Peter Snayer was a Flemish painter known for his panoramic battle scenes, depictions of cavalry, attacks on villages, carriages and convoys, and hunting scenes, and he established his reputation primarily through his topographical battle scenes that provide a bird's-eye view of the battlefield. He also painted large landscapes and portraits of the aristocracy, and was a regular collaborator with local landscape painters and also with Rubens, and after beginning his career in Antwerp, he moved to Brussels, where he worked for the court. He was the leading military iconographer at the court of Brussels and the court painter appointed to the rank of lieutenant-colonel. Snayers was enrolled as a pupil of Sebastiaen Vrancx at the Guild of Saint Luke in Antwerp in 1612. In 1613 Snayers became master of the Guild. He joined the painters' guild in Brussels on 16 June 1628. It is believed that he had been working for the Archduke Albert (d. 1621) while living in Antwerp. He had been appointed court painter and 'domesticq van 't Hof" (court domestic) by the Archduke. Snayers probably moved to Brussels to seek opportunities at the court of the Archduchess Isabella, the Archduke's widow and governess of the Southern Netherlands. After Isabella's death in 1633, Snayers became court painter to the next two governors, Cardinal Infante Ferdinand of Austria (1634-1641) and Archduke Leopold (William) (1647-1656). For them he painted victorious battle scenes in the tradition of 16th-century tapestries. He painted portraits of the Brussels aristocracy and large landscapes. He also worked for other eminent patrons and the open market. A highlight of his career was the commission for 22 battle paintings by General Ottavio Piccolomini, and he collaborated with Antwerp painters such as Peter Paul Rubens on several occasions, including on the unfinished cycle The Life of Henry IV (1628-30) and the series Tower of the Parade (c. 1637-1640). During both his Antwerp and Brussels periods, he mingled with the elite of his time. He climbed the social ladder and aspired to live a lifestyle similar to that of the aristocrats of his time. He was thus an example of the 'aristocratisation' of successful 17th century citizens. His pupils included Guilliam van Schoor and Adam Frans van der Meulen. The latter became a leading battle painter and court painter to Louis XIV of France. He painted portraits of the Brussels aristocracy and large landscapes. Stylistically, his colouring was more subdued than that of his master Vrancx and reflects contemporary trends in Flemish and Netherlandish painting. His large canvases clearly played a dual role: they documented the historical event and at the same time glorified the military men who took part in the action.

French school; second half of the 19th century."Hunting the Lion.Oil on panel.Provenance: private collection conceived since the 70's between London and Madrid.Measurements: 17 x 32 cm.In this canvas the painter captures a hunting scene with two animals, skilfully placed in a dynamic and asymmetrical composition, based on the use of diagonals. These animals are worked with a soft and detailed brushstroke which creates the atmosphere of tension, captured in a way where special attention is paid to the expressive postures and the revealing scene.
