Bandbox Design - Hunting Scene

Harold Merriam

National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of a hunting scene with stylized animals and a rider on horseback. It features a bright yellow background with stylized representations of a wild boar and a rider on horseback. The wild boar, depicted in pink, runs across the scene with a sense of urgency, followed by the rider on a horse. In the background, a small animal leaps through the air. The imagery is presented in a highly stylized manner with bold color contrasts, using shades of pinks and purples against the vibrant yellow. Floral motifs and decorative elements are scattered throughout the scene. This is in the style of Andy Warhol, emphasizing flat colors and bold outlines.
