About the piece

This 17th-century Flemish-style animal painting captures a moment of intense drama in a dark, atmospheric barnyard. The vibrant textures of the rooster’s plumage and the fox’s thick fur create a compelling visual narrative that exemplifies the Baroque interest in dynamic nature and animal studies.
