"Stag Hunt" is a notable work by the French artist Jacques le Moyne de Morgues (c. 1533–1588), who was known for his detailed illustrations of flora and fauna as well as his depictions of the indigenous peoples and settlements of the New World. Le Moyne was among the earliest European artists to travel to North America, accompanying the French Huguenot expedition to Florida in 1564 as the official artist and cartographer. His works provide a valuable historical record of the early encounters between Europeans and Native Americans.

The "Stag Hunt" is a watercolor painting that exemplifies le Moyne's skill in rendering naturalistic scenes. It likely dates from the latter part of the 16th century, a period when le Moyne had settled in England after fleeing religious persecution in France. The painting depicts a hunting scene, a popular subject in European art that reflects the aristocratic and courtly interest in hunting as a noble pursuit. In this work, le Moyne combines his keen eye for detail with his experience of the landscapes and practices he observed in the New World.

While the exact date of creation and the provenance of "Stag Hunt" are not well-documented, the painting is significant for its artistic merit and for its place within the broader context of le Moyne's oeuvre. His works are considered important for their ethnographic and botanical accuracy, and "Stag Hunt" contributes to the understanding of cultural practices and the natural environment during the period of early European exploration in the Americas.

The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it has been referenced in art historical literature as an example of le Moyne's work and of the genre of hunting scenes in Renaissance art. As with many of le Moyne's surviving pieces, "Stag Hunt" offers insight into the cross-cultural encounters of the 16th century and the European fascination with the exotic and uncharted territories of the New World.
