Seller's Notes/Description: A monumental and majestic battle scene painted in high detail. The pure nobility of the majestic Arabian Horse is featured in this dramatic composition directly inspired by Gerome’s use of the diagonal in his compositions. This is undeniably Gueldry’s singular opus, the artist’s masterpiece. Settle in for a good read (below) all about the story of the War in Lace, Madame Pompadour, Colonel d’Ablancourt and the epic battle dressed in gallantry and roses, and about the epic journey the artist undertook in the creation of this heroic painting of a chivalrous act in the defense of the reputation of an honorable mistress of Louis XV, King of France.

Brady Hart Gallery is currently on the internet only, as Brady closed his brick and mortar gallery in September of 2019, to free his time and focus on larger markets than that of the greater Eastern Shore metropolitan area. In fact, Brady has been working on art advising and brokering for paintings of a higher caliber than those found on this site.
Any painting found on this site may be viewed by appointment if you will be on the Eastern Shore. To make an appointment, call 443-480-5395. It is hard to contemplate the acquisition of a painting based on a digital photo, and most assuredly, every single one is better appreciated in person. When one can see the magic of the brushstroke, observe the painting in changing light conditions, and even smell the antique oil, one can begin to understand the level of joy brought by the investment in a tangible asset, fine art.
Brady began as a studio artist before falling into the world of art dealing, advising and brokering. Brady keeps the flame alive and keeps his eye sharp by attending regular life drawing sessions, the short sketch format being his favorite.
