EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th century print by Hendrick Avercamp, titled "Return of the Duck Hunters" on the recto, and "Sketches of Ships and of a Man in Winter Clothing" on the verso, showcases the rich agricultural and maritime culture of the Dutch Golden Age. The Return of the Duck Hunters depicts a lively scene of farmers and laborers returning from a day of duck shooting, their faces expressing a sense of camaraderie and satisfaction. The hunters, dressed in winter clothing, are shown gathered around a bridge, their guns at the ready as they prepare to cross and continue their pursuit of the ducks. On the verso, a series of sketches of ships and a man in winter clothing offer a glimpse into the maritime world of the time. The ships, depicted in graphite and ink on paper, are rendered with meticulous detail, their sails billowing in the wind. The man, bundled up against the cold, adds a sense of scale and humanity to the scene. Avercamp's mastery of brush and ink is evident in both the agricultural and maritime scenes. His ability to capture the essence of daily life during this period, from the laborers in the fields to the sailors at sea, makes this print a valuable addition to any art collection or exhibition. The print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Dutch Golden Age and the enduring appeal of the rural and maritime scenes of this period.
