Jagers vangen kraanvogels 1605

This etching by Italian artist Antonio Tempesta, created in 1605, depicts a scene of hunters on horseback pursuing cranes. The intricate details of the scene, from the hunters' bows and arrows to the graceful flight of the cranes, are rendered with remarkable precision. This print showcases Tempesta's mastery of the etching technique and his ability to capture the dynamic energy of a hunting scene. It is currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam, offering a glimpse into the artistic landscape of the early 17th century.
