Lot 49: HEINRICH GOTTFRIED WILDA (Austrian, 1862-1911) SUNDAY CARRIAGE RIDE

Outstanding oil on board scene shows three aristocrats in a black carriage pulled by four brown horses. In the front seat of this open carriage, which is quite refined with its side carriage lamp and thin spoke wheels, is a gentleman driver with top hat and gloves. A well dressed woman in Sunday's finery with flower covered hat and red parasol. The back seat occupied by a gentleman with top hat and blue coat. All set against a backdrop of blue sky and smooth dirt ground. The artist has captured the movement of the horses and carriage exceedingly well. Signed lower left "H G Wilda". Housed in what is probably its original gilt gesso decorated fancy frame.

17-1/2" x 28".

Very good.
