About the piece
Created in 1659 by Dutch master Nicolaes Pieterszoon Berchem, this composition captures the energy of a wild boar hunt. The artist showcases his signature Italianate style, blending the high-stakes action of the foreground with a luminous, hazy mountain range that recedes into the distance. The mastery of light and shadow highlights the movement of the horses and the determination of the pack of hounds.
