"Leopard æder et vildsvin." (Leopard Eats a Wild Boar) is a watercolor painting created by Antoine-Louis Barye between 1832 and 1835, now housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst. Barye, a renowned sculptor, explored the natural world through his art, capturing the raw power and drama of animal encounters. This depiction of a leopard overpowering a wild boar exemplifies Barye's fascination with the untamed aspects of nature. The dynamic composition, with the leopard's powerful physique dominating the scene, emphasizes the brutal yet mesmerizing cycle of life and death in the wild.
