About this work

This sketch shows a man in a tall hat and long coat standing in shallow water, holding a long stick. His dog sits beside him, looking down. Tall reeds surround them, and the water looks calm. The title at the top, *Les Plaisirs de la chasse*, means "The Pleasures of Hunting" in French. The man’s outfit and the dog suggest he’s hunting birds in the marshes. Next, check out Romanticism to see how artists used nature and emotion in their work.
