Hunting Egypt (Series Hunting)

Tatyana Palchuk Biography

In a style reminiscent of ancient Egyptian tomb paintings, T. Palchuk presents the timeless theme of hunting as a grand theatrical performance within living nature. Excitement fills the air, accompanied by the resounding sounds of hunting horns and the joyous spectacle of royal hunting rituals. This scene pulsates with life, capturing the dynamics and echoes of the natural world.

In this particular artwork, an Egyptian hunter takes aim with his bow, his gaze fixed intently on the target, anticipating the outcome. Two companions—an agile hunting hawk and a loyal dog—swiftly move to assist in the hunt. The painting skillfully captures the essence of tomb reliefs from ancient Egypt, embodying asceticism and technical elegance. It serves as a beautiful bridge across millennia, rendered in a monochrome color tone reminiscent of sandstone walls.
