This is a page from Lindeboom's Fotografie Album showcasing six reproductions of drawings depicting horses and hounds engaged in a hunt. While the artist remains anonymous, the images provide a glimpse into the social rituals of a particular time and class. Hunting, as depicted here, was not merely a sport but a display of power and status. Consider the relationship between humans, animals, and the landscape. The hunters, mounted on horseback, command the scene, while the hounds are tools in their pursuit. The hunted animal, absent from these frames, becomes an invisible, yet central figure. These images perpetuate a narrative where nature is something to be dominated. Who is included and excluded from this narrative, and how does it reflect broader social hierarchies?
