Description: | This painting is attributed to the Flemish artist Carel Falens. Two mounted soldiers rest beside a herd of goats; a woman offers them a drink and a small boy holds his hat in a begging gesture. Falens became a member of the Academie de Paris in 1726 and produced battle and hunting scenes in the style of Philips Wouwerman. This painting is typical of Falens's work in which soldiers on horseback are depicted in everyday-life scenes. | Subjects: | horse goat); figure; landscape; everyday life; military and war animal (dog | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Falens, Carel van (Flemish painter, 1683-1733) Æ Attributed to | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8379... | Go to resource |
