EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable plaque representing the hunts of Louis XVI, specifically depicting the relay at the crossroads of the Embrassade in the forest of Compiegne. Created by renowned artists Charles Etienne Leguay and Jean Baptiste Oudry, this porcelain painting was made at the prestigious Manufacture of Sevres between 1778 and 1781. The artwork measures 0.39x0.29 meters and is currently housed in Versailles' castle museum, where it continues to captivate visitors with its exquisite detail and historical significance. The scene depicted on the plaque portrays a valet decoupling an old pack of hounds, highlighting both the elegance and excitement associated with hunting during that era. Oudry's masterful brushstrokes bring to life every intricate element within this composition - from the lush forest backdrop to each individual animal portrayed with meticulous precision. This piece not only serves as a testament to Oudry's artistic prowess but also offers insight into French leisure activities during the 18th century. Louis XVI himself is represented as an avid hunter, further emphasizing his passion for outdoor pursuits. The combination of artistry, history, and cultural significance makes this print a truly captivating addition to any collection or exhibition dedicated to hunting art or French heritage.
