Baroque painting - Philips Wouwerman


Hello,
this time another Northern European artist and his horses of the Baroque period - Dutch painter Philips Wouwerman

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philips_Wouwerman  or www.artcyclopedia.com/artists/wouwerman_philips.html
Books eg -  on google books The Masterpieces of Wouwerman

No much talking here, but simple pleasure of viewing equestrian art, and these are his horses in hunt, camp life, war or just for a beholder's eye :)




well, lovely paintings and fine, realistically painted powerful  horses and nags long time before  English painter Subbs did horse anatomical charts for artists and veterinarians.
