Forest landscape with nymphs and satyrs. Oil on canvas, relined. Signed lower middle and dated 1787. Restored.
Johann Georg Schütz originated from a well-known Hesse painter's family. He spent a couple of years in Rome for the purposes of study and was bound in close friendship to the painter Jakob Philipp Hackert, whose influence is clearly visible in the present painting. Mythological subjects like the one with nymphs and satyrs enjoyed great popularity as they offered the possibility to depict even erotic scenes.

Johann Georg Schütz entstammte einer bekannten hessischen Malerfamilie. Er verbrachte viele Jahre zu Studienzwecken in Rom, wo ihn unter anderem eine enge Freundschaft mit dem Maler Jakob Philipp Hackert verband, dessen Einfluss in dem hier vorgestellten Werk noch deutlich spürbar ist. Mythologische Themen, wie dasjenige der Nymphen und Satyrn, erfreuten sich seit der Renaissance großer Beliebtheit, boten sie doch den Malern die Gelegenheit, auch erotische Bildinhalte zu thematisieren.
