EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 16th century print captures the essence of German huntsmen in their traditional attire, circa 1515. The huntsmen are depicted in various stages of readiness, each clad in intricately designed clothing that reflects their dedication to their craft. The garments, which include doublets, hose, and caps, are adorned with a distinctive decorative technique known as paning. This form of slashing involves cutting and embellishing fabric with geometric patterns, creating a visually striking contrast against the solid colors of the clothing. The huntsmen's doublets, fitted jackets that were popular during this period, are slashed with vertical lines, while their hose, or tight-fitting breeches, feature horizontal slashes. Their caps, which are worn low on their foreheads, are also paned, with intricate designs that frame the face. Accompanying the huntsmen are their faithful hounds and leads, which are also depicted with intricate detail. The lead, a long pole with a hooked end, is a crucial tool for controlling and managing the hounds during the hunt. The huntsmen's pikes, which are slung over their shoulders, are a reminder of the importance of defense in the unpredictable world of the hunt. This print offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of German huntsmen during the 16th century, a time when traditional hunting practices and intricate clothing designs were deeply intertwined. The huntsmen's commitment to their craft is evident in their meticulously crafted attire, which not only served a practical purpose but also reflected their status and identity within their community.
