Georges Louis Busson

This famous french watercolourist is well known for his hunting

scenes but besides that he did a lot of subjects with horses and

other animals. The hunting scenes are a bit in the english tradition

but this romantic scene has a lot of charm on its' own.

The title: "La sortie en Caleche a Saumur"  would suggest it

to be this work (source: Artprice) but in fact it isn't. They both

share the open carriage but that's about it. Work on paper.

Dimensions: 48 / 63 cm.

A detail of this watercolour that profoundly shows us

the skills he had in portraiting horses.

Quite recognizable: His signature which in fact is quite plain.

This watercolour is in good condition regarding its'age.

Only some small spots caused by humidity in combination

with the cardboard these works authentically were backed with.



In fact this is the work that bears the title:
"La sortie en Caleche a Saumur" and it has
a lot of similarities in implimentation.
The castle of Saumur (Loire) is painted
in the background. It has about the same dimensions
as the first work in our possesion. In fact dimensions
Georges Louis C. Busson was comfortable with.

A watercolour probably from a German artist.

We still have to investigate.

Work on paper. Dimensions: 25 / 35 cm.
