Elephant ivory
French (Paris), ca. 1350

Accession # 2003.131.2

The hunter on horseback, accompanied by a hound, emerges from a castle at the left. In the central section a party of men and women pursue a stag that is killed as it drinks from the water of a fountain on the right. The ivory panel is unusually large and deeply carved.

Text from the Cloisters label.
