EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - "The Coot Hunt of Ferdinand I of the Two Sicilies on Lake Fusaro near Naples, Italy, 1783". The artwork, created by Jacob-Philippe Hackert, showcases the hunting expedition led by Ferdinand I, also known as Ferdinand IV of Naples. In this picturesque scene, we see the king and his entourage gathered at the shores of Lake Fusaro. The focal point is undoubtedly Ferdinand himself, dressed regally and holding a rifle with determination. Surrounding him are lush trees and a serene lake that stretches into the horizon. One cannot help but notice the intricately detailed hunting casino or casina Vanvitelliana on the right side of the composition. This architectural gem adds an element of grandeur to an already majestic setting. Hackert's masterful brushstrokes bring life to every aspect of this painting - from each leaf on the trees to every feathered detail on birds flying overhead. It is evident that he was not only capturing a moment in time but also showcasing his immense talent as an artist. Luisa Ricciarini has skillfully preserved this extraordinary piece through her photography expertise. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back to 18th century Italy and given a glimpse into both nature's beauty and historical significance intertwined within one frame.
