In this print titled "Wolf and the Hunter" we are transported to a world where animals hunting is not merely a blood sport but rather an intricate dance between predator and prey. The image showcases a dense forest backdrop, evoking a sense of fantasy and enchantment. A majestic deer family gracefully navigates through the trees while being pursued by a wild dog.
