About the piece

Created in 1909 by Albert Ernst Mühlig, this oil painting depicts a noble red deer stag surveying a forest edge. The work showcases Mühlig’s mastery of naturalist technique, from the fine texture of the deer's coat to the soft, atmospheric rendering of the forest background and sky.
