EDITORS COMMENTS
This fresco, titled "Hunting Hares, 1615" by Guercino (Giovanni Francesco Barbieri), takes us back in time to a thrilling hunting scene. The artwork is housed in the Pinacoteca Civica in Cento, Italy, originally discovered at Casa Pannini. In this lively composition, we witness a group of men on horseback accompanied by their loyal dogs as they engage in the age-old pursuit of hare hunting. The riders are depicted with great skill and precision, capturing the intensity and excitement of the chase. With their determined expressions and poised stances, they epitomize skilled hunters ready to conquer their prey. The hounds play a crucial role in this hunt; their agility and speed evident as they eagerly pursue the hares through fields and forests. These highly trained canines showcase their instinctual abilities while working harmoniously with their human counterparts. Guercino's attention to detail is remarkable; every element within the painting adds depth and realism to the scene. From the majestic horses galloping alongside each other to the various breeds of dogs participating in this exhilarating event – including deerhounds and basset hounds – each animal contributes its unique energy to create an atmosphere brimming with life. "Hunting Hares" not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to our enduring connection with nature's wild beauty. It reminds us of our primal instincts intertwined with man's relationship with animals throughout history.
