EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hunting for Ducks" takes us back to the 17th century, immersing us in a scene of excitement and anticipation. Created by Jan van der Straet, also known as Joannes Stradanus, this illustration is part of the renowned Venationes, Ferarum, Avium (Of Hunting: Wild Beasts, Birds) collection. The image showcases a serene riverbank where male hunters patiently await their prey. Hidden among lush foliage and armed with guns and nets, they are poised for action. The atmosphere is palpable as the hunters remain silent and still, ready to strike at any moment. Intricately engraved by Jan Collaert under the publication of Phillipus Gallaeus in Amsterdam, this artwork captures every minute detail with precision. From the delicate feathers of the ducks to the texture of their surroundings, it transports us into a world long gone but forever preserved through art. The composition exudes both beauty and tension as we witness nature's dance between predator and prey. The ducks gracefully glide across the water's surface unaware of what awaits them. This print serves as a reminder that hunting has been an integral part of human existence throughout history. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Finder's Stapleton Collection today, let it transport us back in time to appreciate not only its artistic mastery but also reflect on our relationship with nature and how it has evolved over centuries.
