107. Huntsmen in pursuit of their Game. The view repre-
sents an open hilly country, diversified with water, rich clusters
of trees, a village, and a fortress, bounded by distant mountains.
In addition to a herd of cows and a few sheep, which three
peasants are keeping, may be noticed several huntsmen, one of
whom, mounted on a white horse, is riding full gallop. A
great variety of brambles and wild herbage, which grow
luxuriantly on the fore-ground, are ressected in a lucid stream.

bounded by masses of bushes growing among rocks. On the
