Lot No. 112


Attributed to Johann Friedrich Grooth


(Stuttgart 1717-1806 St. Petersburg),
Game against a landscape backdrop,
oil on canvas, 133 x 143 cm, framed

The attribution to the Russian court painter Grooth is based on strong stylistic resemblances of this painting to the animal paintings Grooth executed in the service of the Russian empresses Elisabeth Petrovna and Catherine II for Monbijou Pavilion in the park of Zarskoje Selo. These pictures feature almost square formats, as does the present painting.
