This painting, A rooster and chickens near beehives, was painted by Carl Jutz. He was born in Windschläg near Offenburg, Germany, in 1838. After his training and many studies of nature, he became an expressive painter of pets, mostly poultry. In 1853 Jutz joined the studio of animal painter A. Knip in Baden-Baden. After this Carl continued his training auto-didactically. To improve his animal painting Carl Jutz kept several varieties of poultry in his backyard. He also developed special poultry housing so he could carefully study each bird individually. Interested? This wonderful painting can be yours for € 37,500!
