1823
unspecified
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Hunter and Lord at the River Isar with View of Munich is a 1823 unspecified by Wilhelm von Kobell, a German Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The painting depicts a serene scene of two men on horseback, one dressed in a green coat and top hat, the other in a dark green coat and cap, standing on a dirt path overlooking a river. A white dog and a boy in a red vest and yellow hat are also present, with the boy holding a basket. In the background, a cityscape with buildings and a body of water is visible. The artist's use of color and composition creates a sense of depth and tranquility, drawing the viewer's eye to the figures in the foreground. The contrast between the warm tones of the horses and the cool tones of the water adds to the overall sense of balance in the scene.

Wilhelm von Kobell (1766–1853) was an artist, born in Mannheim.
