Description |
English: Hunting was a privilege and favored pastime of the aristocracy. Most hunting took place in parks and private hunting preserves, like those maintained by Archdukes Albert and Isabella near their palace in Brussels. Depictions of hunts with ancient gods and goddesses of Olympus, especially Diana and her nymphs, lent a romantic aura to an everyday pastime.
The animals and birds were painted by Jan Brueghel the younger. The sleeping figures of Diana and her nymphs and the satyrs watching them are by another, unidentified artist. |
