  • 1829.04.28/ maison de ventes : Foster (Edward). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Morning -- Preparing for the Chase. This pictue was probably painted for the Stadtholder's Family, as on the left is an accurate portrait of Maurice Prince of Orange, drawing on his boots; near him is a Moor holding two Horses, a black and a dappled grey, the latter occupies the front, and it is difficult to imagine a more perfect representation of that noble animal; an Attendant is mounted and waiting under a cluster of Trees, which shelter the whole party, a Greyhound slaking his thirst at a patch of water; in the distance is the Castle of Nassau. A warm gleam of Sun-shine darts through the Trees, and diffuses a brilliancy on the whole scene (Albert Cuyp)|Morning -- Preparing for the Chase.
