"Hounds Attacking a Stag" is a notable work by French painter Jean-Baptiste Oudry, created in 1746 during the Rococo period, which is characterized by its ornate and decorative style. Oudry, known for his realistic portrayal of animals and hunting scenes, was a painter, engraver, and tapestry designer who became a member of the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture in 1719 and later served as a professor there.

This painting, measuring an impressive 256 x 324 cm, is a grand-scale work that exemplifies Oudry's skill in capturing the dynamic tension of a hunting scene. It depicts a dramatic moment in which a pack of hounds has caught up with a stag, showcasing the raw power and brutality of nature. The composition is carefully constructed to lead the viewer's eye through the scene, with the stag positioned as the focal point amidst the chaos of the attacking dogs.

Oudry's mastery of texture and color is evident in the detailed rendering of the animals' fur and the lush forest background. The work's realism is heightened by the artist's understanding of animal anatomy and movement, making the scene come alive with a sense of immediacy and action.

"Hounds Attacking a Stag" is not only a testament to Oudry's artistic talents but also provides insight into the cultural practices and aristocratic pastimes of 18th-century France, where hunting was a popular and prestigious activity. The painting is held in high regard for its historical significance and its contribution to the genre of animal painting, a genre that Oudry helped to elevate within the hierarchy of academic art.

Today, the painting is part of the collection at the Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature in Paris, France, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and cultural value.
