Abstract:
A tall man, in a large club wig under a riding hat and with a powder bag over his shoulder, examines the results of his shooting. His gun is aimed too low and in the distance on a hill a dog lies on the ground bleeding profusely while two partridges fly away. Another man, in old-fashioned clothes and standing to the left of the huntsman, is laughing at him
