Trophy of the Hunt

Adolphe Braun

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white photograph of a still life arrangement titled "Trophy of the Hunt" by Adolphe Braun. The image features several dead birds, including a pheasant and a grouse, arranged on a woven basket with fringe. The birds are surrounded by leaves and twigs. The background is a wooden wall or door with a grainy texture. The birds are positioned in a circular metal frame, with some hanging down and others placed on top of the basket. The overall composition is dense and intricate, with the birds and foliage overlapping each other. The image is highly detailed, with visible textures on the birds' feathers, the basket, and the wooden background.
