Artist
Nicolaus Oeller
Nicolaus Oeller is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Romanian Academy in Bucharest.
This 17th- or 18th-century painter made a single surviving work: the oil on canvas *Tragerea la semn cu arbaleta*, a detailed scene of a crossbow target competition. The scene is set outdoors with figures in period dress, bows drawn, targets in the distance. There’s no movement label for this unsigned work, but the clothing and equipment point to a Central European tradition from the late 1600s or early 1700s. Tap to see the archer’s stance and the crowd around the target square.
