About the piece
Painted around 1720 by the French master Jean-Baptiste Oudry, this elaborate still life represents the element of 'Fire' through the inclusion of a hunting rifle. The composition displays Oudry's exceptional skill in capturing the varied qualities of game, from the soft fur of the hare to the iridescent plumage of the birds, set against a muted, scholarly background.
