EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Duck Shooting, illustration from Venationes, Ferarum, Avium" takes us back to the 17th century and immerses us in a scene of hunting along a serene riverbank. Engraved by Jan Collaert and published by Phillipus Gallaeus in Amsterdam, this artwork showcases the remarkable talent of Joannes Stradanus (Jan van der Straet), capturing the essence of an age-old tradition. In this image, we witness hunters accompanied by their loyal dogs as they navigate the river's edge. The hunters are armed with guns and walking sticks while carefully aiming at ducks flying above them. The birds gracefully glide through the air, unaware of their impending fate. The tranquility of nature is juxtaposed with the intensity of the hunt. The attention to detail in this engraving is truly remarkable; every stroke brings life to each element within it. From the intricate depiction of feathers on both ducks and birds alike to the expressions on both human faces and canine companions, every aspect conveys a sense of realism that transports viewers into this historical moment. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate not only the artistry involved but also provides insight into past customs and traditions surrounding hunting practices during that era. It serves as a testament to our fascination with wildlife and our desire for adventure throughout history.
