About the piece
Created around 1672 by Jan Hackaert, this atmospheric oil painting depicts a lively deer hunt. The composition is masterfully framed by massive, textured tree trunks, while the golden light of the late afternoon filters through the canopy, illuminating the hunters, their hounds, and the fleeing deer in the central pond.
