Otto Gebler (1838 Dresden – 1917 Munich) Sheep Drinking A finely painted, realistic scene at the entrance to a barn, featuring a lively depiction of the animals: the sheep are drinking from a water bowl while three chicks cautiously try to approach. Using a dabbing brush, the artist masterfully imitates the surface texture of the fur, the wall, and the ground, rendering them with a velvety, tactile quality. Gebler studied at the academies in Dresden and Munich and specialized in animal painting, particularly sheep, which he tirelessly studied from live models. In charming scenes, he also depicted shepherd boys, young shepherds, shepherdesses, and farm girls. Beginning in 1867, he submitted works to major national and international exhibitions and received medals in Berlin, London, and Munich between 1874 and 1883. Oil on wood; signed lower right; old gallery label on the reverse. 40 cm x 55.5 cm. Framed. Provenance: Honrath & van Baerle, court art dealers in Berlin, Unter den Linden. Oil on panel. Signed. Old gallery label on the reverse.
