EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print captures a momentous event in history, the "Meeting for the Puits-du-Roi Hunt at Compiegne" by Jean-Baptiste Oudry. Painted on canvas with meticulous detail and skill, this oil painting showcases a scene from the hunts of Louis XV. Set against the majestic backdrop of Chateau de Fontainebleau in Seine-et-Marne, France, we witness an assembly of huntsmen, dogs, and horses gathered in a clearing. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as courtiers and attendants await the arrival of their king. Oudry's masterful brushstrokes bring life to every element within the composition. The hounds eagerly wag their tails while horses prance restlessly under their riders' firm control. A horn blower stands poised to signal the start of this grand hunt. This artwork serves as a cartoon for a tapestry that would adorn royal chambers or halls during Louis XV's reign. It offers us a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle enjoyed by French royalty during this era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to experience not only an extravagant hunting expedition but also witness the power and influence held by King Louis XV over his subjects. This print allows us to appreciate Oudry's artistic genius while immersing ourselves in an important chapter of French history.
