This morning a German Auction House put this beautiful 19th Century painting in their current catalog. I thought I would post it separately since it would get lost in the many postings I will be making shortly regarding the Fall/Winter Auction season. The depiction of young St. John is an iconographic image you see repeated throughout the history of western art. I would love to join the bidding but the auction house insists it is too large to ship to the states (it is smaller than the last painting I had shipped from Europe.... go figure). I will keep nagging them and perhaps they can sort out the details. Regardless, it is a beautiful depiction of the young saint.

Artist: Unknown

Material: Oils on canvas

Dated: circa 1800-1830

Ludwig Koch (1866-1934) Zentaurenkampf - Centaur Fight, ca.1900

Last week I programmed an automatic bid on eBay Austria for a drawing I thought would be beyond my low bid but fortunately it worked out that I won the auction. I love Greek mythological characters, especially any half human - half animal characters in the Greek Pantheon of gods, like Pan and of course the Centaur. When I saw this magical drawing I was impressed with the skill of the artist. Ludwig Koch was primarily known as a horse and historical warfare painter. From 1883 to 1891 he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna and was a student of Siegmund L'Allemand and August Eisenmenger. He specialized in accounts of Austrian Military History. In 1891 he exhibited at Vienna's annual exhibition. His equestrian works are the largest portion of his genre paintings.
