EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the 17th century, showcasing birdcatchers in action as they trap starlings. The illustration is taken from Venationes, Ferarum, Avium, Piscium (Of Hunting: Wild Beasts, Birds, Fish), engraved by Jan Collaert and published by Phillipus Gallaeus in Amsterdam. In this intricate artwork by Jan van der Straet (Joannes Stradanus), we see the skilled hunters strategically setting up their traps to catch these elusive birds. The composition beautifully depicts the tension between man and nature as the birdcatchers employ nets and cages to ensnare their prey. The level of detail in this engraving is remarkable; every feather on the starlings' wings seems to come alive on paper. It transports us back in time to witness this traditional hunting practice that was prevalent during the 17th century. The print belongs to The Stapleton Collection and showcases a variety of engravings by renowned artists such as H. Wierix, H. Goltzius, C. de Mallery, C. Galle, T. Galle, J. Collaert alongside Jan van der Straet himself. This historical artwork not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insight into past hunting techniques and traditions while reminding us of our complex relationship with nature throughout history.
