The Lion and Leopard Hunt

The Lion and Leopard Hunt or The Lion Hunt[1] is a painting by Peter Paul Rubens, now held in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden. It is very similar to his The Tiger Hunt from the musée des beaux-arts de Rennes and its dating is debated.

Notes

  1. Not to be confused with his 1621 The Lion Hunt.
