"Trackers" is a realist painting by Hungarian artist Károly Lotz completed in 1875. The painting depicts a group of men on horseback, moving through a landscape dotted with greenery and a calm river. The composition of the painting is such that the viewer is drawn to the men on horseback, the light illuminating their figures against a backdrop of a bright sky and rolling countryside. It is a painting that captures the essence of life in the countryside, and the importance of animals in such a setting.
