1662
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Reynard the Fox: The Arrival of the Packet is a 1662 by Allart van Everdingen, a Baroque work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This print shows a chaotic forest scene with animals and people tangled together. A fox stands near the center, surrounded by a ram, a bear, and a few small figures who look lost or confused. Trees loom in the background, their branches twisting into a dark, tangled mess. The fox’s sharp eyes and the animals’ messy scramble suggest trouble is brewing. This print is part of a series about Reynard the Fox, a trickster character from old stories. Next, look up The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more prints like this.
Allaert van Everdingen (Dutch pronunciation: ; bapt. 18 June 1621 – 8 November 1675 (buried)), was a Dutch Golden Age painter and printmaker in etching and mezzotint.
