Hunting Scene

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white painting of a "Hunting Scene" by Eugene Boudin. The scene depicts a field with several trees, some bare and some with leaves. In the left foreground, a dark-colored boar or pig-like animal faces right. In the right foreground, a man in a dark top and light pants holds a gun and faces left. The man stands next to a white horse that faces left. Two small dogs run in the field, one near the man and one farther back. The background shows more trees and a cloudy sky.
