Stag Hunt (French: Chasse au cerf) is an oil on canvas painting by Flemish painter Paul Bril.
[5][7] Bril painted imaginary landscapes typical of the Flemish tradition, following the example of painters such as Joachim Patinir, Herri met de Bles and Pieter Bruegel the Elder.
Two hunters are riding a horse, one is in the foreground, the other is visible in a clearing among the trees closing the painting to the left, in the background.
From the rider's horse jumping forward in the foreground, the painting recedes, in a slanted and undulated view, to the bosky landscape visible through an opening.
The painting was part of the collection of King Luis XVI of France, who acquired it from a merchant Alvarez in 1682.
