Georges Frédéric Rötig (1873-1961) Attributed To - Herd Of Boars In The Snow - Watercolor

Very nice unsigned watercolor attributed to the great animal artist Georges Frédéric Rötig. The artwork is framed in a simple modern frame, which measures 39 cm by 48 cm and 24 cm by 33 cm without the frame. It represents a herd of wild boars in a winter landscape. he was a pupil of the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and that there were as professors Jules Lefebvre, Jean-Pierre Laurens and Benjamin-Constant; he received several awards at the Salon of French artists (notably in 1903) and, in 1913, the Rosa-Bonheur Prize. Georges-Frédéric Rötig's work is essentially, if not exclusively, composed of animal scenes: stags, hinds, roe deer, wild boars, pheasants, partridges, but also animals living in the mountains or in the moors (chamois, elk, etc.), finally wild animals (lions, for example) and much more familiar or domestic animals (frogs, dogs). Several of his paintings are in public collections: in the museums of Le Havre, Amiens, Cambrai and Vernon.
