About the piece

Painted in 1679 by Adriaen Cornelisz Beeldemaker, this oil on canvas captures the quiet anticipation of a hunt. The artist masterfully illuminates the varied coats of the spaniels and hounds against the deep shadows of the forest, while a vast, rolling landscape stretches toward a distant village in the background.
