# Dead Partridges with Hound [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [FYT, Jan]() - Date: 1601-1650 - Technique: Oil on canvas, 38 x 62 cm ## Commentary Jan Fyt became a master in Antwerp in 1629 after training under Frans Snyders and collaborating with him. He arrived at a sophisticated and elegant style which was, however, quite different from that of his teacher. His still-life of game are examples of his style. A brace of partridges or a hare, with a gun dog apparently guarding the bag, often located in the open air with a background of trees, or else on a terrace or in the entrance hall of a fine country house. ## Related artworks - [A Hound with a Rabbit and a Musket in a Landscape]() - [Big Dog, Dwarf and Boy]() - [Bird Concert]() - [Bittern and Ducks Startled by Dogs]() - [Concert of Birds]() - [Dead Game]() - [Diana, Goddess of the Hunt \(detail\)]() - [Diana, Goddess of the Hunt]() - [Diana with Her Hunting Dogs beside Kill \(detail\)]() - [Diana with Her Hunting Dogs beside Kill]() - [Ducks and Water Hens Surprised by Dogs]() - [Game and Hunting Gear Discovered by a Cat]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
