EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, titled "Hare Hunting" and painted by Jan Wyck in the late 17th century, we are transported to a scene of exhilarating pursuit in the countryside. The artist's masterful use of oil on canvas brings to life a thrilling hunt that unfolds before our eyes. Amidst the sprawling rural landscape, a group of horseback riders can be seen chasing after hares with unwavering determination. Their horses gallop at full speed as they navigate through fields and over obstacles in their quest for victory. The hounds eagerly follow their scent, adding an element of suspense to the chase. Wyck's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of both human and animal subjects. Each figure is meticulously rendered, showcasing their intense focus and athleticism. The hares themselves appear agile and nimble as they attempt to outmaneuver their pursuers. This painting not only captures the excitement of the hunt but also celebrates the harmonious relationship between man, horse, and dog. It serves as a reminder of our connection with nature and our primal instincts as hunters. Displayed proudly at Yale Center for British Art as part of Paul Mellon Collection, this artwork continues to captivate viewers centuries later with its timeless depiction of sport and wildlife.
