Jacht op herten 1598

"Jacht op herten" (Deer Hunt) is a 1598 etching by the Italian artist Antonio Tempesta. The print depicts a lively hunt scene with numerous figures on horseback and on foot pursuing deer and hares through a wooded landscape. The detail of the hunters and their dogs, as well as the dramatic action of the hunt, is characteristic of Tempesta's work. The artwork is currently on display at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
