EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a Hawking Party in the year 1665. Painted by Wouwermans or Wouvermans, Philips (1619-68), this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 28x34.2 cm and is currently housed at The Holburne Museum in Bath, UK. The scene depicted is set against a stunning rural landscape, bathed in the warm hues of dusk. A group of elegantly dressed men and women on horseback can be seen gathered beneath an archway covered in lush greenery. They are accompanied by their loyal attendants and skilled falconers who hold majestic birds of prey. The neoclassical elements within this painting add to its timeless beauty; classical architecture stands tall amidst overgrown foliage, creating a harmonious blend between nature and man-made structures. As daybreak approaches, the party prepares for an exhilarating hunt with their horses eagerly awaiting the command to gallop forward. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation as they embark on their hawking adventure. Every detail has been meticulously captured by the artist's brushstrokes - from the intricate attire worn by each individual to the graceful movements of both humans and animals alike. This painting not only showcases sporting prowess but also highlights society's love for outdoor pursuits during that era. It serves as a reminder of our connection with nature and how it has long been intertwined with human leisure activities. Bridgeman Images has masterfully reproduced this artwork, allowing us to
