EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century oil painting, titled "Box" by Louis-Joachim Colmet de Coutry and Edme Charles de Lioux de Savignac, captures a moment of tranquility and elegance in the world of deer hunting. The oval-shaped canvas, adorned with intricate goldsmithery and emmail metal technique decorations, showcases a man on horseback, dressed in the height of fashionable attire, as he skillfully shoots a deer with a gold-mounted rifle. The richly colored scene is further enhanced by the use of silk and oil paint, which brings the textures of the man's clothing, the horse's mane, and the velvety fur of the deer to life. The painting, created between 1779 and 1780, is a testament to the artisanal skills and artistic prowess of the French artists Colmet de Coutry and Lioux de Savignac. The box-like frame, with its ornate gold and glass details, adds an additional layer of decorative artistry to the piece. This painting is a valuable addition to any collection of 18th century decorative arts, and is currently housed in the Musée Cognacq-Jay in Paris, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors. The close-up view of the painting reveals the intricate details of the man's face, the horse's ears, and the deer's expressive eyes, making it a true masterpiece of the era. The painting's heritage value lies not only in its historical significance, but also in its ability to transport us to a time of elegance, grace, and the thrill of the hunt.
