EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the 18th century. Created by Nicolas Colibert, this piece of art captures the essence of rural life in France during that time. In this scene, we witness a hunting party returning from their successful expedition. The countryside setting adds an element of tranquility as men and women on horseback make their way through lush fields and rolling hills. The falconer proudly holds his bird of prey while his loyal hunting dogs accompany him. The image beautifully showcases the bond between humans and animals, highlighting the age-old tradition of falconry. It also reflects the social dynamics of the era, with individuals from different walks of life coming together for a common purpose. Colibert's skillful engraving technique brings out intricate details in every aspect - from the feathers on birds to expressions on faces. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers valuable insights into professions and occupations prevalent during that period. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, "Return from the Game Hunt, 1786" stands as a testament to Colibert's talent and regionalism in French art history. It transports viewers back in time, allowing them to immerse themselves in an era where nature intertwined seamlessly with human existence.
