Hofmaler Ludwigs XV, von dem ein Großteil seines Werkes von Herzog Christian Ludwig II von Mecklenburg-Schwerin gesammelt wurde.
Â
Vor einer nurmehr fragmentarisch vorhandenen Backsteinmauer, hinter welcher dem Auge des Betrachters im linken Hintergrund eine Parklandschaft mit Fontäne gewahr wird, drei übereinander gestaffelte Vögel, eine Ente, einen Pfau und eine Schnepfe darstellend. In die Brust der Ente hatte sich eine darüberkauernde Katze verbissen, deren Aufmerksamkeit nun einem von rechts her nahenden Hund gilt.
Anmerkung:
In Bezug auf die rückwärtig abschließende Mauer und die dargestellten Vögel lässt sich als Vergleich ein Gemälde heranziehen, welches beim RKD Den Haag unter Nummer 227717 verzeichnet und 1740 datiert ist. (1230131) (1) (13)
Jean-Baptiste Oudry,

Court painter of Louis XV. The majority of his works were collected by Christian Ludwig II, Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin.
THE STARTLED CAT Oil on canvas. Relined.

Notes:
The enclosing wall at the back of the panting with the depicted birds easily compares with a painting held at the RKD, The Hague with no. 227717, dated 1740.
