A successful hunting scene is called off and its loot is on display. Together with the dogs, this creates a beautiful and complete composition that Gryef has created. The work is surrounded in a beautiful frame and comes with the necessary paperwork. The work is in good condition, but a good refresher would certainly benefit the work. We can of course arrange this for you in consultation after the auction.
