About this work

This painting shows a still life of dead game—likely a hare and a bird—resting on a rough, textured surface. The colors are mostly muted: earthy browns, grays, and a few patches of white and yellow. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, giving the scene a raw, unfinished look. The artist used heavy paint in some spots, making the textures pop. This technique is called *impasto*—where paint is laid on thick so you can almost feel the ridges. Check out impasto to see how other artists used thick paint like this.
