"A Wild Sow and her Young Attacked by Dogs" is a 1748 painting by the French artist Jean-Baptiste Oudry, known for his naturalistic portrayal of animals and his work as a painter at the court of Louis XV. This artwork exemplifies Oudry's skill in capturing the dynamism and drama of a hunting scene, a popular subject in the 18th century that reflected the aristocratic interest in hunting as a sport and pastime.

The painting depicts a ferocious encounter between a mother wild sow defending her piglets against a pack of relentless hunting dogs. Oudry's mastery of animal anatomy and movement is evident in the detailed rendering of the animals' fur, the tension in their muscles, and the expressions of aggression and fear. The composition is dynamic, with the eye being led through the scene by the interaction between the predators and their prey, and the use of chiaroscuro enhances the sense of depth and the dramatic impact of the confrontation.

Measuring 260 cm by 199 cm, the large-scale work is a testament to Oudry's ability to handle complex compositions and to evoke the raw emotion and brutality of the hunt. The painting is part of a series of works by Oudry that illustrate hunting scenes, which were highly prized by the French nobility for their representation of power, control over nature, and the refinement of the hunt as a noble pursuit.

"A Wild Sow and her Young Attacked by Dogs" is held in the collection of the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Strasbourg, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance. The painting not only serves as a prime example of Oudry's artistic talent but also provides insight into the cultural and social values of 18th-century France.
