About the piece
Painted around 1660 by the renowned Dutch artist Philips Wouwerman, this scene captures the refined activity of hawking. The composition is anchored by a beautifully detailed piebald horse in the foreground, while the vast, hazy sky provides a sense of depth and open air characteristic of the period's landscape traditions.
