Johann Baptist Kirner
Grand ducal hunting party, vor 1842
About the object
When compared to the pencil drawing made earlier, the hastily sketched pen and ink drawing for the painting Jagdpartie (Hunting Party) reveals a significant alteration: Kirner combines both halves of the composition into a composite scene. It is now dominated by Grand Duke Leopold, who has been placed centrally in front of the tree.
