A wool and silk probably Flemish tapestry, late 17th or early 18th century
This tapestry depicts a deer-hunting scene with numerous motifs and characters. The action takes place in the foreground, where four hunters armed with weapons and a horn set off in pursuit of a stag. The rider is the central figure in the group.
The horizontal movement of the procession and the dynamic postures contrast with the verticality of the trees and the peaceful character emanating from the shepherd and his flock. The parrot and the monkey frightened by a dog add an exotic touch to the composition.
