From the Minneapolis Institute of Art record
Two young dog handlers with two dogs wait under an oak tree for the hunt to begin. The handlers wear clothing of an old-fashioned style more common in the 1500s. The tapestry’s ornate borders, however, are up-to-date, with architectural elements and fruit-and-flower garlands typical of the 1600s. Belgium, Europe
