Jupiter, related works

In this drypoint by the Housebook Master we see Jupiter's children engaged in one of their favorite pastimes: the hunt. The spacious depiction of landscape, the exquisite rendering of human form, and the general excitement of the scene make this one of the most advanced works by the Housebook Master, and probably one of his latest.
