EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 17th century oil painting by Cornelis Norbertus Gysbrechts, titled "Trompe l'Oeil with Falconer's Bag and other Equipment for Falconry," showcases an intricate and lifelike representation of falconry equipment. The artist masterfully employs the technique of trompe l'oeil, French for "deceive the eye," to create an illusion of three-dimensional depth and texture. The painting features a falconer's bag, a cloth pouch used to store and transport falcons, along with a falcon lure and a falcon hood. The bag is rendered in rich green fabric, adorned with intricate patterns and fringes, while the lure, a device used to attract and tame birds of prey, is depicted with a realistic-looking bird attached. The falcon hood, designed to protect the falcon during flight, is shown open, revealing the falcon's head and beak. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the textures of the fabric, the feathers of the falcon, and the naturalistic representation of the wood and leather materials. The painting's close-up perspective invites the viewer to examine each element closely, revealing the skill and artistry of the artist. This artwork, created in Flanders during the seventeenth century, is a testament to the rich heritage of animal art and the tradition of falconry. It is currently on display at the Statens Museum for Kunst (National Gallery of Denmark) in Copenhagen, where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
