Johann Georg Pforr (1745 Ulfen – 1798 Frankfurt am Main) Falconry Scene A charming, finely painted cabinet painting by the artist, famous for his depictions of horses, who followed in the tradition of Philip Wouwerman. Pforr worked as a painter at the Kassel porcelain manufactory until 1771; in 1778, he attended the newly founded Kassel Academy of Art, of which he became a member the following year. From 1780 to 1783, Landgrave Friedrich II acquired Pforr’s first paintings. In 1781, Pforr moved to Frankfurt, where, until his death in 1798, he devoted himself almost exclusively to his specialty: the painting of horses and riders, which had become an art form in its own right. Oil on wood panel. Signed on the reverse: “pinx. J. G. Pforr.” 18 cm x 26.3 cm. Framed. Oil on panel. Signed on the reverse.
