Description: | In a hilly landscape, a huntsman on horseback in a green jacket and holding a pistol leaps across the foreground, right; both horse and rider have mouths open in frenzied excitement. Other men on horseback, left and centre mid-distance, and on hill, upper right. In a stream, left and centre foreground, hunting dogs pursue two stags, one of which is mostly submerged and on its back. A shattered tree, left foreground. Large expanse of sky. This is one of a set of six paintings (PC.158 (1-6) possibly originally conceived as tapestry designs. Partly overpainted, reputedly in the late nineteenth century. | Subjects: | landscape; figure; animal (horse; dog; stag) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Malleyn, Gerrit (Dutch artist, 1753-1816) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8765... | Go to resource |
