Une famille de braconniers
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving from the 19th century that offers a glimpse into the world of poachers. Set against a picturesque rural landscape, this artwork depicts a family engaged in their illicit activities. The French School artist skillfully captures the essence of countryside life with green pastures and rolling hills as the backdrop. The scene portrays an entire family involved in hunting, emphasizing the significance of this practice within their lives. With state hunting being prevalent during this era, bloodsports were not uncommon, and families like these relied on it for sustenance. The engraving showcases various wildlife animals such as chickens and hens alongside farm animals like livestock. Intriguingly, amidst this rustic setting, a fox can be seen lurking nearby - perhaps representing both danger and opportunity for these brazen poachers. It symbolizes their constant struggle to provide food for their loved ones while evading authorities. This print serves as a poignant reminder of how people's livelihoods were intertwined with nature during that time period. It also sheds light on social dynamics within rural communities where survival often depended on resourcefulness and resilience. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of history through Fine Art Finder, allowing us to appreciate its artistic brilliance while contemplating the complexities of life in 19th-century France.
