CrazyhorseconsultingTo the best of my knpwledge, the Fort Worth Zoo has the best Kuhnert collection in this country.
I have tried to find a link so that everyone could see the various paintings by Kuhnert that Harry Tennison and his wife collected.
During the last few years I was at the zoo, a concerted effort was made by the Zooilogical Associatition to display all of the paintings for the Public to enjoy.
Even the rocks don't last forever.

bwanamrmKuhnert has always been one of my favorite painters of African wildlife.
On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......
"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

Bill/OregonDamned good stuff, Ann -- from a time long, long ago and a galaxy far, far away. That second painting you linked to reminds me of Ernest Thompson Seton's "Triumph of the Wolves," which may be seen at Valhalla -- also known as Philmont Scout Ranch, Cimarron, New Mexico -- just a short jog from the NRA's Whittington Center near Raton.

bwanamrmI saw one of his buffalo originals just sold in the big western art auction in Cour d'Lene for $59,5000. Certainly not a steal but less than I thought it might bring...

safari-lawyerHis work with oils is amazing, but his watercolor and pencil work is just as impressive, in my humble opinion.

BockhunterKuhnert was an great hunter and artist.
And: He was an great photographer (but sadly most of his Pictures are lost in the WW II bombing) also.
I have two originals and three of his books (very cheap in ebay). Great pictures, my tipp: Buy them.
We have now a big convention with his pictures in Germany.
Here you can see details and some great pictures.

Carlsen HighwayI must say something here: as a man who has done oil painting for many years, and who is reasonable able, I can tell you that the results that Kuhnert achieved in many of his later works are of the highest calibre. What you can see there done with such a simple stroke of a brush, is enormously educated and very difficult to learn today since the craft is not taught in any formal way anymore. (For example, the one of the man eating lion.)
Wilhelm Kuhnert's technical skill was of the highest level in his own time.
