German / Landscape / Paintings (Reproductions) / Romanticism - 1 year ago - troycapc
This is a reproduction of “The Hintersee by Berchtesgaden” of 1826 by Johann Nepomuk Ott. This masterpiece was produced by the Bavarian master when he was twenty-two years old. The beautiful Bavarian lake covers sixteen hectares near Ramsau. Its banks have high mountains to the west , meadows to the south and woods to the north and east. On calm days the neighboring mountain peaks are reflected on the still lake surface and this has drawn artists since early in the Nineteenth Century. Ott was one of the first. The artist died in 1870 and the original painting is 42 cm wide and 36 cm high.

The Fox Hunt by Winslow Homer, 1893
American / Paintings (Reproductions) / Winslow Homer - 1 year ago - troycapc
This is a reproduction of Winslow Homer’s masterpiece “The Fox Hunt” of 1893. It shows a flock of crows circling upon a fox who has been slowed down by deep snows. This work is among the “Darwinian” paintings in which the artist attempts to portray the struggle implied within the concept of the survival of the fittest. It was immediately purchased by the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia. At 68.5 inches wide it is Homer’s largest painting and this was his first work to enter a major museum collection. It began the process by which the artist finally reached financial stability within seven years, at the age of sixty-four. This painting is still in the possession of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia.
