Document source description

Barye brought a new approach to the depiction of animals in art, but his work was also informed by artists who portrayed animal subjects before him. This drawing of two hunting dogs is copied from a print after a painting of a fox hunt by Jean-Baptiste Oudry (1686-1755), an 18th-century artist who specialized in depicting animals.On the reverse of this drawing is a study of fruit.
