EDITORS COMMENTS
"The Fox Hunt, painted between 1650 and 1679 by Ludolf de Jongh, captures the essence of the Baroque era in the Netherlands with its rich colors and dynamic composition. The oil on canvas painting depicts a group of riders and hounds in the countryside, engaged in the traditional pursuit of a fox. The setting sun casts a warm glow over the landscape, bathing the scene in a soft, rustic light. The hunters, both male and female, are dressed in the finest clothing of the day, their faces determined and focused as they ride towards their quarry. The hounds, ears alert and eyes fixed on the scent, are a testament to the deep connection between man and animal in this rural pastime. The painting's vibrant colors and intricate details transport us back to a time when the pursuit of the fox was a cherished tradition, a symbol of heritage and regional pride. The Fox Hunt is a stunning example of Dutch Baroque painting, and a reminder of the beauty and complexity of rural life in the seventeenth century." Ludolf de Jongh (1614-1679) was a Dutch painter known for his landscapes and genre scenes. His works often depicted everyday life in the Netherlands, with a particular focus on the rural countryside and the people who lived there. The Fox Hunt is one of his most famous paintings and is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The painting's rich colors and intricate details make it a beloved masterpiece of Dutch heritage art, and a testament to the enduring appeal of the Baroque era.
