Jægerens øje 1935

"Jægerens øje" (The Hunter's Eye), painted in 1935 by Danish artist Gustaf Munch-Petersen, is a vibrant and symbolic gouache painting. The work depicts a stylized, almost mask-like face with a large, central eye. Surrounding the figure are a variety of elements, including a gazelle, a butterfly, and other symbolic objects. The painting is characterized by bold lines, vivid colors, and a sense of primitive power, reflecting the artist's interest in folklore and mythology. The work is housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
