Hunting Still Life
around 1640/50 | Frans Snyders
For decades, Snyders worked together with Rubens, and he was also a friend of Jan Brueghel the Elder and a highly admired representative of Flemish Baroque still-life painting. His best pupils were Jan Fyt and Paul de Vos. The hunting kill depicted here consists of starlings and other song-birds, a hare, a pheasant, partridges, black cock, wild duck and snipe. The cat looking lustfully through the window gives the still life a humorous accent.
