"Pursuit of Wolves" is a painting by Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski, a Polish painter renowned for his depictions of rural life in Poland and genre scenes featuring horses and wolves. Born in 1849 in the village of Sułków, Wierusz-Kowalski became a prominent artist in the Munich School, a group of Polish artists who studied and worked in Munich, Germany, and were known for their realistic and often dramatic rural scenes.

Completed in 1887, "Pursuit of Wolves" is a quintessential example of Wierusz-Kowalski's fascination with the dynamic relationship between humans and nature. The painting portrays a dramatic winter scene in which a group of horse-drawn sleighs is being chased by a pack of wolves. The composition captures the tension and urgency of the pursuit, with the wolves appearing close to overtaking the sleighs. The humans, bundled against the cold, are depicted in a state of high alert, with some of them turning to look back at their pursuers.

Wierusz-Kowalski's skillful use of color and light adds to the painting's emotional impact, with the stark whites of the snow contrasting against the dark figures of the wolves and the warm tones of the human figures. The artist's attention to detail, from the expressions of the people to the anatomy of the wolves, contributes to the realism of the scene.

"Pursuit of Wolves" is considered one of Wierusz-Kowalski's masterpieces and reflects his ability to convey narrative and movement within his works. The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as an example of the genre scenes that were popular in the late 19th century. It remains a significant piece within the oeuvre of Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski and is appreciated for its historical value as well as its aesthetic qualities.
