HUCHTENBURG , the name of two See also:brothers who were Dutch painters in the second See also:half of the 17th See also:century. Both were natives of See also:Haarlem. See also:Jacob, the See also:elder, of whom very little is known, studied under Berghem, and went See also:early to See also:Italy, where he died See also:young about 1667. His pictures are probably confounded with those of his See also:brother. In See also:Copenhagen, where alone they are catalogued, they illustrate the See also:style of a Dutchman who transfers Berghem's See also:cattle and flocks to See also:Italian landscapes and See also:market-places.

After the See also:death of the latter he wandered homewards, taking See also:Paris on his way, and served under Van der See also:Meulen, then employed in illustrating for See also:- LOUIS

Philip Wouvermans and Van der Meulen, which could not fail to produce See also:pretty pictures of hunts and robber camps, the See also:faculty of See also:painting horses and men in See also:action and varied See also:dress being the chief point of attraction. Later Huchtenburg ventured on See also:cavalry skirmishes and engagements of See also:regular troops generally, and these were admired by See also:Prince See also:Eugene and See also:- WILLIAM

King William and See also:Marlborough popular. Though See also:clever in depicting a melee or a skirmish of dragoons, he remained second to Philip Wouvermans in accuracy of See also:drawing, and inferior to Van der Meulen in the See also:production of landscapes. But, nevertheless, he was a clever and spirited See also:master, with See also:great facility of See also:hand and considerable natural See also:powers of observation.
The earliest date on his pictures is 1674, when he executed the " See also:Stag-See also:Hunt " in the Museum of See also:Berlin,and the " Fight with Robbers " in the Lichtenstein collection at See also:Vienna. A " Skirmish at See also:Fleurus (169o) in the See also:Brussels See also:gallery seems but the precursor of larger and more powerful See also:works, such as the " See also:Siege of See also:Namur " (1695) in the See also:Belvedere at Vienna, where William III. is seen in the foreground accompanied by Max See also:Emmanuel., the Bavarian elector. Three years before, Huchtenburg had had sittings from Prince Eugene (See also:Hague museum) and William III. (Amsterdam Trippenhuis). After 1696 he regularly served as See also:court painter to Prince Eugene, and we have at See also:Turin (gallerv7 a See also:series of eleven canvases all of the same See also:size depicting the various battles of the great See also:hero, commencing with the fight of Zentha against the See also:Turks in 1697, and See also:con-eluding with the See also:capture of See also:Belgrade in 1717. Had the See also:duke of Marlborough been fond of See also:art he would doubtless have possessed many works of our artist. All that remains at See also:Blenheim, however, is a couple of sketches of battles, which were probably sent to See also:Churchill by his great contemporary. The pictures of Huchtenburgare not very numerous now in public galleries. There is one in the See also:National Gallery, See also:London, another at the Louvre.
