Painting Description
"Fishing on a Lake at Night" is a notable engraving that serves as plate 101 in the series "Venationes Ferarum, Avium, Piscium," which translates to "Of Hunting Wild Beasts, Birds, Fish." This work is part of a larger collection that illustrates various hunting scenes, capturing the essence of 16th-century interactions between humans and nature. The engraving was executed by Jan Collaert (1566–1628), a prominent Flemish engraver of the time, under the direction of the Italian artist Giovanni Stradano, also known as Jan van der Straet.
Stradano was an influential figure in the Northern Mannerist movement, and his works often depicted detailed and dynamic scenes. "Fishing on a Lake at Night" is no exception, showcasing the intricate interplay of light and shadow, as well as the meticulous attention to the subtleties of human activity and the natural environment. The engraving portrays the serene yet lively activity of nighttime fishing, with figures illuminated by the soft glow of lanterns against the backdrop of a darkened landscape.
Published by Phillipus Gallaeus (Philips Galle) of Amsterdam, the series was widely disseminated and contributed to the spread of Stradano's reputation across Europe. Gallaeus was a notable publisher and engraver himself, and his collaboration with artists like Collaert and Stradano played a significant role in the proliferation of Northern Renaissance art.
The "Venationes Ferarum, Avium, Piscium" series, including "Fishing on a Lake at Night," is an important historical record of hunting practices and leisure activities of the period. It reflects the era's fascination with the natural world and the human endeavor to master it. The engraving remains a valuable piece for scholars studying the period's art, culture, and societal attitudes towards nature and recreation.
