artist who specialises in or is known for their skill in the portrayal of animals the oed dates the first express use of the term animal painter to the mid 18th century by english physician naturalist and writer john berkenhout 1726 1791 2 from the early 20th century wildlife artist became a more usual term for contemporary animal painters 3 history edit frans snyders and workshop the boar hunt c 1650 especially in the 17th century animal painters would often collaborate with other artists who would either paint the main subject in a historical or mythological piece or the landscape background in a decorative one frans snyders a founder of the baroque animal painting tradition often provided the animals and also still lifes of food for peter paul rubens a different landscape specialist might provide the background 4 the paintings by snyders and his workshop alone typically lack humans except in kitchen scenes and usually show a number of animals of different species or breeds of dog there are about equal numbers of paintings of dead animals usually in a kitchen setting or as hunting trophies in a landscape and of live ones often in ferocious combat in the dutch golden age such specialists tended to produce smaller genre paintings concentrating on their specialism 5 animal painters came lower down in the hierarchy of genres but the best painters could make a very good living many royal and aristocratic patrons were more interested in their subject matter than that of the more prestigious genres mainly in england there were still more specialised painters from the 18th century who produced portraits of racehorses and prize specimens of livestock 6 whereas in france animal subjects continued to be decorative capriccios often set around garden statuary in 2014 jonathan jones of the guardian proposed the goldfinch 1654 by carel fabritius 1622 1654 as the finest animal portrait 7 this was not the artist s normal subject matter at all animalier edit antoine louis barye jaguar devouring a hare 1850 main article animalier animalier as a collective plural noun is a term used in antiques for small scale sculptures of animals in particular animalier bronzes but also paintings of animals large numbers of these were produced often mass produced in the 19th century in france and elsewhere many earlier examples can be found but animalier sculpture became more popular and reputable in early 19th century paris with the works of antoine louis barye 1795 1875 for whom the term was coined decisively by critics in 1831 8 and christopher fratin 1801 1864 9 by the mid 19th century a taste for animal subjects was widespread among the middle classes 10 wildlife conservation edit many modern wildlife artists or art groups hold benefits to support wildlife conservation or participate in contests held by wildlife conservation organisations 11 notable animal painters edit see also category animal artists before 1800 edit francis barlow c 1626 1704 jan
