EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Man with a crossbow" captures the essence of an archer tournament in the 17th century. The image, created by Pieter Serwouters and Claes Jansz. Visscher II between 1601 and 1657, showcases the skill and precision required in this sport. In the foreground, a kneeling man takes aim with his crossbow, displaying remarkable accuracy. His concentration is palpable as he prepares to release his shot towards a group of birds perched on a tree branch nearby. Hunting dogs eagerly await their master's success while an owl nonchalantly sits atop another branch. However, what makes this scene truly unique is an unexpected twist: an owl above decides to relieve itself right onto the hunter's head! This comical moment adds humor and surprise to an otherwise intense competition. The print beautifully captures the intricate details of each element - from the archer's determined expression to every feathered creature present. The composition is further enhanced by lines that guide our eyes through the scene. Overall, this Dutch masterpiece offers viewers both amusement and admiration for its technical prowess. Quint Lox has expertly curated this piece from Liszt Collection, allowing us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its artistic value.
