This print showcases "A Hunt" a stunning artwork created by the Persian School in the 16th century. The piece, measuring 40 x 27.9 cm, is currently housed at the Freer Gallery of Art, Smithsonian Institution in the USA. This particular print is a detached album folio from an album and was acquired through various sources including the Smithsonian Unrestricted Trust Funds, Smithsonian Collections Acquisition Program, and Dr. Arthur M.
