"Halte de Chasse" (also known as "The Hunting Party at Rest") is a notable painting by the French artist Charles-André van Loo (1705–1765), who was a prominent figure in 18th-century French art. Van Loo was part of the Van Loo family of painters and was known for his versatility, having produced works in genres ranging from history and mythology to portraiture and genre scenes. "Halte de Chasse" is an example of the latter, depicting a group of aristocratic hunters taking a break from their pursuit, a subject that reflects the leisure activities of the elite during the Rococo period.

The painting is characterized by its refined elegance and attention to detail, qualities that are emblematic of the Rococo style. In "Halte de Chasse," van Loo captures the relaxed yet sophisticated atmosphere of the hunt, a popular pastime among the nobility. The composition typically features elegantly dressed figures, horses, and hunting dogs, set in a natural landscape that serves as a backdrop for the genteel scene.

As a work of art, "Halte de Chasse" not only showcases van Loo's skill in rendering fabrics, textures, and the human form but also provides insight into the social customs and cultural values of the time. The painting is significant for its artistic merit as well as its historical context, offering a window into the leisurely pursuits and aesthetic preferences of the French aristocracy in the years leading up to the French Revolution.

While the exact date of creation for "Halte de Chasse" is not specified, it is believed to have been painted during the height of van Loo's career, when he was receiving significant commissions and recognition, including his appointment as First Painter to King Louis XV in 1762. The painting is part of van Loo's broader oeuvre, which contributed to the development of French art in the Rococo period and influenced subsequent generations of artists.

"Halte de Chasse" is held in high regard by art historians and collectors, and it can be found in the collections of major museums or private collections specializing in 18th-century European art. Its representation of the leisurely pursuits of the aristocracy, combined with van Loo's artistic prowess, makes it a valuable piece for understanding the cultural and artistic landscape of pre-revolutionary France.
