"Die Hundemeute im Kampf mit den Wölfen" (English: "The Pack of Hounds in Combat with Wolves") is a notable painting by the Flemish Baroque artist Frans Snyders (1579–1657), who specialized in still lifes, animal scenes, and hunting tableaus. This work exemplifies Snyders' mastery in depicting dynamic interactions between animals, a theme that was popular during the 17th century and resonated with the aristocratic and bourgeois clientele's interests in hunting and nature.

The painting portrays a ferocious battle between a pack of hounds and a group of wolves, a subject that allowed Snyders to showcase his skill in rendering the anatomy of animals in motion and the raw intensity of their encounters. The composition is characterized by a tumultuous arrangement of figures, with each animal captured in a moment of aggressive engagement, highlighting the artist's understanding of animal behavior and his ability to translate it into a dramatic visual narrative.

Snyders' work often reflected the power and violence of nature, themes that were allegorically linked to human virtues and vices, such as bravery, savagery, and the struggle for survival. "Die Hundemeute im Kampf mit den Wölfen" is no exception, as it can be interpreted as a metaphor for the human condition or as a straightforward representation of a natural occurrence.

The painting's date of creation is not precisely documented, but it is generally attributed to the early 17th century, a period when Snyders was at the height of his artistic powers and had established a reputation for his animal pieces. His work was influential in the development of animalier painting, a genre that would become increasingly significant in European art.

As with many of Snyders' paintings, "Die Hundemeute im Kampf mit den Wölfen" is notable for its large scale, which enhances the dramatic impact of the scene. The artist's use of color, light, and shadow adds to the visceral quality of the image, making it a compelling example of Baroque art's emphasis on emotion and movement.

Today, the painting is recognized as an important work in Snyders' oeuvre and is studied for its artistic and historical significance. It remains an enduring testament to the artist's talent and his contribution to the genre of animal painting.
