HAWKING FOR HARES WITH KESTRELS?
This 19th century engraving by Fromentin seems to depict kestrels on hare or rabbit.
Not sure this is a very accurate concept, sometimes artists did not quite know the sport of falconry.
Welcome to this blog, which is where I show my art work, which is mainly focused on birds and falconry. I work mainly in oils on portrait quality canvas, and use only top quality materials, i.e., those paints and oils which will not fade or discolour. Pencil and graphite are also featured, with a pencil work sometimes being made as the study for a more detailed work in colour.
