Hunters and Game
1750
From the collection of Statens Museum for Kunst
Hunters and Game is a 1750 by Unknown, depicting Hunting, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This black-and-white photo shows two men and a dead animal on a table. One man stands holding a rifle, wearing a fur hat and dark coat. The other man, seated, leans on a cloth-covered table where the animal lies. Both look serious, and there’s a dog at the table’s edge. The photo focuses on the aftermath of a hunt, with tools and gear around them. The lighting is dramatic, with strong shadows and bright spots on faces and objects. Look up chiaroscuro next to see how this lighting style works.
