Ludwig Adam Kunz, Hunting Still Life with Pheasant and Partridge, 1876
A classic hunting still life by the Austrian artist Ludwig Adam Kunz (1857-1929), executed in oil on canvas. The work depicts two game birds – a pheasant and a smaller partridge – hanging from a string against a dark, neutral background. The depiction is characterised by a detailed rendering of the plumage and academic lighting that emphasises the volume of the birds. A clearly legible signature in dark colour is located in the upper left quadrant: L – Adam Kunz. The year 1876 is inscribed directly below. The painting is set in an elaborate, gilded 19th-century ornate frame, which features a deep cove profile with pronounced gadrooning and an inner bead-and-reel moulding. The canvas shows a uniform craquelure structure typical of its age across the entire surface of the image. Frame 110 x 89 cm. Image 96 x 76 cm.
