Wilhelm von Kobell

Wilhelm von Kobell painted lively hunting scenes and landscapes filled with game and riders. His brush captured moments like the 1811 Boar Hunt on the Staffelsee near Munich, where hunters and hounds move through misty forests. Working in early 19th-century Bavaria, he belonged to a tradition of lively genre scenes that celebrated the outdoors. Tap into Boar Hunt on the Staffelsee to step into a German forest of the 1800s.
