Franz Roos, a Dutch painter known for his still lifes, created "Bag" between 1687 and 1722. The painting is a classic example of a "dead game" composition, featuring a hare and three birds lying on the ground, realistically rendered with meticulous detail. The dark background adds a sense of drama and highlights the subtle interplay of light and shadow on the animals' fur and feathers. The artwork is now in the collection of SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, Denmark.
