The painting is unsigned on the front. An old handwritten inscription on the upper stretcher identifies the artist as Steinbach and appears to include the words “in München” (Munich). The artist’s precise identity remains to be established, and the work is therefore catalogued conservatively under the name Steinbach. This atmospheric 19th-century painting depicts two roe deer fleeing across a wintry landscape, closely followed by a hound. The movement of the animals brings a vivid narrative quality to the scene: a young buck, recognizable by his small antlers, turns alertly as he runs beside a second deer, while the pursuing dog emerges from the snowy terrain behind them. The artist combines careful observation of wildlife with a sensitive treatment of the surrounding landscape. Snow lightly covers the uneven ground and branches of the tall fir trees, while the distant woodland gradually dissolves into the misty horizon. Above, a softly illuminated sky in subtle shades of grey, pale gold and rose creates a striking contrast with the darker forest. Characteristic of 19th-century Romantic and Naturalist animal painting, the work combines dramatic movement with an evocative vision of nature. The restrained winter palette, atmospheric depth and animated wildlife give the composition both decorative appeal and a compelling sense of narrative. 19th century wildlife painting, roe deer painting, deer and hound painting, hound chasing deer, hunting scene painting, deer hunt painting, winter hunting scene, winter landscape painting, snowy forest painting, roe buck painting, European wildlife painting, Romantic landscape painting, Romantic wildlife art, Naturalist painting, antique animal painting...

Dimensions with frame: 22 x 29,5 x 3,5 cm Signed "N. Diaz" in the lower left corner. A richly atmospheric 19th century Romantic landscape painting depicting an intimate woodland clearing animated by delicate figures and fluttering white doves. The composition unfolds beneath a dense canopy of trees, where dramatic brushwork and layered impasto create a sense of movement, mystery, and depth. At the center of the scene, small elegantly dressed figures appear gathered near the water’s edge, possibly engaged in a poetic or symbolic moment. The surrounding birds in flight add dynamism and luminosity, their pale forms contrasting beautifully against the deep greens, earthy browns, and golden highlights of the forest. The artist employs expressive, almost impressionistic brushstrokes, giving the foliage a vibrant, textural quality. Light filters through the trees, illuminating portions of the composition while leaving other areas in shadow, enhancing the romantic and slightly theatrical mood. Both mysterious and lyrical, this work evokes themes of nature, contemplation, and transcendence. It would make a compelling addition to a refined interior, particularly for collectors drawn to moody landscapes and narrative European painting of the 19th century. A compelling and atmospheric antique oil painting that beautifully captures the poetry of nature and the elegance of human presence within it. 19th century landscape painting, Romantic forest painting, antique woodland scene, European Romantic art, antique oil on canvas, atmospheric landscape artwork, forest clearing painting, figures in landscape, doves in painting, impressionistic brushwork, Continental school painting...

Dimensions with frame: 40 x 46 x 6 cm Signed "Bisi" in the lower left corner. This exceptional 19th century European landscape painting depicts a dramatic mountainous panorama animated by an elegant traveling party resting along a wooded riverbank. Executed in the Romantic tradition, the composition masterfully balances sweeping alpine peaks, atmospheric sky, and finely detailed foreground figures. In the distance, rugged mountains rise beneath a luminous sky filled with soft clouds, while warm autumnal tones enrich the rolling hills. The foreground reveals a noble entourage—figures on horseback, attendants, and travelers—gathered along a tranquil river. Their period attire and banners suggest a historical or courtly narrative, adding refinement and storytelling to the natural grandeur of the setting. The artist demonstrates remarkable skill in perspective and light, creating depth through layered mountains and delicate atmospheric effects. The foliage is rendered with meticulous detail, and the interplay of shadow and sunlight enhances the romantic mood of the scene. Likely Continental European, this work embodies the ideals of 19th century Romantic landscape painting, where nature’s sublimity meets human presence. The piece would make a distinguished addition to a traditional, classical, or Grand Tour–inspired interior. A refined and decorative work of strong visual impact, combining historical charm, painterly finesse, and timeless appeal. 19th century landscape painting, antique European landscape, Romantic mountain painting, alpine landscape art, Grand Tour painting, historical scene painting, equestrian figures painting, classical European art, antique oil painting, 1800s landscape artwork, Continental school painting...

Shipping off the coast by English artist Thomas Luny. Oil on canvas signed and dated 35' in the lower left. Nice period and possibly original frame. Thomas Luny (1759–1837), born in Cornwall, probably at St Ewe, was an English artist and painter, mostly of seascapes and other marine-based works. At the age of eleven, Luny left Cornwall to live in London. There he became the apprentice of Francis Holman, a marine painter who would have a great and long lasting artistic influence on Luny: Luny remained until 1780 in Holman's London studio, which, was first situated in Broad Street, St. George's, and later relocated to Old Gravel Lane. Examples of his work are exhibited at the National Maritime Museum at Greenwich, in the Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter, and at The Mariners' Museum in Newport...
