On June 24, 2017 was presented at auction a painting of Gustave Moreau<\/strong>. Sold 18 800 euros<\/strong>, this one revealed the vein again romantic<\/span><\/strong> of the artist.<\/p>\n

A pupil of Edouard Picot and stylistically close to Th\u00e9odore Chasseriau, Gustave Moreau began to become famous around 1854-55: his large format with a mythological subject commissioned by the State was exhibited at the Universal Exhibition, a rare privilege for an artist so young.<\/p>\n

Painted on a non-parqueted wooden panel (a board), signed lower right and probably dated the year "54", our painting can be related to d'' other small formats on wood<\/strong>representing various episodes of the falcon hunt<\/span><\/strong>. One of them with a man walking in the foreground is located in the Hiroshi Matsuo collection in Japan (27 x 19.5 cm, dated 1852); another with the hunters on horseback was on sale in Paris Tajan study, March 30, 2011, lot 127 (27 x 21.5 cm, dated 1853).<\/p>\n

Here, in the background, with one hand, the character waves a decoy and holds the falcon still hooded on his other wrist, while in the foreground, the heron runs away.<\/p>\n

In his correspondence with Eug\u00e8ne Fromentin, Gustave Moreau wrote in April 1856: \u201cRegarding our provincial exhibitions, nothing has yet returned from our mailings. I sold in Bordeaux for 200 F two sketches of a falconer; it is a nice price, it is encouraging, M. Dauzats told me; I would like to see him there. However, to tell the truth, I felt great joy when I heard that I was bought something \u201d. Indeed, the society of the Arts of Bordeaux acquired two panels and allotted them by lot to two of its members.<\/p>\n
