Aimo and Vermondo Riding Out to the Hunt

Los Angeles, United States

Aimo and Vermondo, the two figures with feathered caps, lead four men on a hunt for wild boar. Heading into the wilderness, the small group emerges from a small gated building that summarily represents the city. The men on horseback are engaged in conversation, and a young page on foot precedes the noble riders, surrounded by the dogs. The ornate tunics and dappled horses demonstrate the interest in lavish costume and decorative pattern that was often a feature of works of art made in the International style.
