“Sportsman’s Return,” British Oil on Canvas, after George Morland
$0.00
A 19th century British oil on canvas tavern scene after the original by George Morland, in an exceptionally fine carved and gilded frame. The painting captures an instant of daily life: tying up a pony to step over for a pint, and a young man and his hounds showing off a rabbit to the server in the window. The superb frame is cornucopia-like in its profusion of gilded fruits and flowers spilling out in three dimensions: grapes, pomegranates and figs are mingled with roses, daisies, jonquils and anemones.
