In the background a huntsman follows his hound as it chases into the woods after what appears to be a hare. The huntsman in the foreground stands on a stone parapet, which may relate to the painting’s original setting. He has a rabbit tied by its ears to the stick over his shoulder and he carries a spear in his left hand. The two huntsmen are dressed in similar clothes and the two scenes are probably intended to form a continuous narrative.
