EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Pursuit of a Roe-buck, from Livre de la Chasse" takes us back in time to the 14th century. Created by an unknown French artist, this piece showcases the artistry and skill that went into medieval manuscript illustrations. The scene depicted is one of thrilling chase and excitement. A pack of hounds eagerly pursue a majestic roe-buck through a lush forest. The deer's graceful form is beautifully captured, its antlers reaching towards the sky as it gracefully leaps over fallen logs. The intricate details found within this artwork are truly remarkable. Each leaf on the surrounding foliage has been meticulously painted with vibrant colors, adding depth and texture to the composition. The horses ridden by hunters add another layer of movement to the scene, their powerful muscles flexing as they gallop alongside their canine companions. This print not only serves as a testament to the artistic talents of its creator but also provides us with a glimpse into medieval hunting practices. It reminds us of our connection with nature and our age-old fascination with capturing its beauty. Displayed at the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, this work continues to captivate viewers centuries after its creation. Its timeless appeal speaks volumes about humanity's enduring love for both art and wildlife alike.
