EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts a skilled falconer from the 16th century in Scandinavia, as he prepares to feed his hunting falcon. The falcon, a magnificent bird of prey, is known for its impressive size and power, making it an ideal companion for the art of hawking. In this moment, the falconer holds a gloved hand, offering a piece of fresh meat to the raptor perched on his wrist. The falcon's sharp, hooked beak and piercing gaze are on full display, showcasing the bird's natural hunting instincts. Historically, falconry was a popular pastime among the European nobility, with Scandinavia being one of the regions where the practice thrived. Falconers would train their birds to hunt game such as foxes, hares, and even wolves. The bond between the falconer and his bird was a deep one, with the falcon often considered a cherished companion and symbol of status. The intricate details of this print, created in 1555, offer a glimpse into the rich history of falconry in Scandinavia. The falconer's elaborate clothing, complete with fur-trimmed hood and feathered cap, reflects the opulence of the era. The natural beauty of the falcon and its surroundings is also captured in stunning detail, making this print a true work of art. As the falconer offers the meat to his bird, the falcon's wings are spread wide, revealing the intricately designed jesses and bells that once attached to the bird's legs. These bells were used to locate the falcon during the hunt, allowing the falconer to keep track of his bird and ensure its safety. This print offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the art of falconry and the deep connection between man and nature that has endured for centuries. The great size and power of the hunting falcon continue to inspire awe and admiration, making this image a true masterpiece.
