Magnificent Pair of Tall French Hunt Scene Paintings on Canvas-Mid 1900s

These large antique French hunt scene paintings were most likely painted for a boiserie (French wooden paneled room) and inset into two of the panels.   One of the paintings depicts the hunt party on horseback in a forest setting with various dogs eagerly awaiting the hunt with a trumpeter in the background.    The other painting depicts the hunt party in an outdoor forest setting celebrating with a feast of food and wine, while the tethered horses rest in the background.  A greyhound  enjoys a friendly pat on the head in the foreground. The trompe l’oeil frames are part of each panel’s painting.

These stunning French hunt scene oil paintings will be an attribute to any room of the home. Condition:  Minor rubs to paint; minor raised areas on canvases;
