From the collection of Statens Museum for Kunst
The Spoils of the Chase is a 1650 unspecified by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a chaotic scene with two figures struggling over a pile of dead animals. One person lies on top, arms outstretched, while the other stands, pulling at the limbs. The background is dark and shadowy, making the figures and animals stand out sharply. The artist used thick, textured brushstrokes to create a rough, almost tactile surface. This technique makes the scene feel raw and dramatic. Next, look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
