EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite painting titled "The Return from the Chase" by Phillips Wouwerman, a renowned Dutch artist of the 17th century. The artwork, dating back to the 1650s, is currently housed in Apsley House in London and was originally part of the Spanish Royal Collection until it was captured at Vitoria in 1813. In this masterpiece, Wouwerman skillfully captures a moment of tranquility amidst an exhilarating hunt. The scene depicts a group of horsemen returning from their successful chase through a lush countryside landscape. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life – from the horses' muscular forms and flowing manes to the riders' animated expressions and vibrant attire. Wouwerman's mastery lies not only in his ability to depict movement but also in his use of light and shadow. Soft sunlight filters through gaps between trees, casting dappled shadows on both horse and rider as they traverse across meadows dotted with wildflowers. This print allows us to appreciate Wouwerman's artistic brilliance up close while preserving its historical significance for generations to come. It serves as a testament to how art can transcend time, transporting viewers into another era where they can almost feel the wind on their face and hear hooves pounding against earth.
