biscuit porcelain group depicting a hunting scene with two young hunters accompanied by their dogs and a gallant couple embracing in the shade of a tree. The group rests on a rocky base scattered with vegetation. Louis XV , Rococo style.
The hunting scene here serves as a pretext for illustrating an intimate scene, in which the two figures are depicted in a pose conducive to love and seduction. The theme explored—that of the amorous couple whose attitudes are imitated by the animals surrounding them—here, the dogs—is a constant in Rococo art .
