EDITORS COMMENTS
Title: Ostrich Hunt, 16th Century by Antonio Tempesta Description: This etching, created by the renowned Italian Baroque artist Antonio Tempesta in the 16th century, depicts an exhilarating hunt scene. Set against a backdrop of an open, sunlit landscape, the image captures the essence of the European hunting tradition. A group of hunters, dressed in the fashion of the time, are shown on horseback, their determined expressions focused on the flightless bird before them. The ostrich, a large, black and white creature native to Africa and the Americas, is a striking contrast to the hunters and their horses. Two hunting dogs, alert and poised, join the riders in the pursuit. The hunters, with their weapons at the ready, are in mid-action, capturing the dynamic energy of the hunt. This intricately detailed etching, with its rich use of line and contrast, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the culture and heritage of the 16th century. This artwork is currently on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) in the United States, where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
