Description
This is a large contemporary decorative print after the 1739 oil painting Indian Blackbuck by Jean-Baptiste Oudry (French, 1686-1755). The work depicts a male antelope in a Romanticist-style landscape under a clouded sunset sky, executed in a style reviving 18th-century European animal portraiture. The piece is a modern reproduction on a textured board substrate designed to simulate the appearance of an original oil painting. It is presented in a substantial dark-toned composite frame with a prominent rope-twist outer border, a wide cove, and a beaded gilt inner liner. The verso is covered in black backing paper and features a manufacturer label for Shadow Catchers.38 x 30 inches.
