This etching by Paul van (II) Somer, titled "Meleager en Atalanta na de jacht", depicts the mythological scene of the hunter Meleager presenting a boar's head to the huntress Atalanta after they have slain a wild boar together. The scene is surrounded by cherubs and dogs, symbolizing love and loyalty. This intricate print, created between 1670 and 1697, demonstrates Somer's skill in capturing both the dramatic nature of the subject matter and the delicate details of the figures and landscape.
