EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 19th century watercolor painting, titled "Stag and Doe," is a captivating work of art by the renowned French animalier sculptor Antoine-Louis Barye. Painted in the 1850s or 1860s, this masterpiece showcases the artist's exceptional ability to depict the alert and dynamic behavior of animals in their natural habitat. The painting portrays a stag and a doe standing at the ready in a rocky area of the Fontainebleau forest. The forest, located in the Seine-et-Marne region of France, is renowned for its moorland and rugged terrain, providing the perfect backdrop for this stunning scene. Barye's use of color and tone adds depth and texture to the image, capturing the essence of the romantic era and its fascination with the natural world. The stag, with its majestic antlers and alert gaze, exudes strength and power, while the doe, with her delicate features and watchful expression, embodies grace and vulnerability. The painting is executed in watercolor on slightly textured, moderately thick cream wove paper, allowing the intricacies of the animals' forms and the details of their surroundings to come to life. This work is a testament to Barye's mastery of his medium and his deep appreciation for the beauty and complexity of the natural world. Today, "Stag and Doe" is a cherished part of the collection at the Walters Art Museum, adding to the rich heritage of French art and the romantic tradition.
