Notes: |
A hunting party, with men shooting at birds and perhaps animals using crossbows and rifles, and with hunting dogs to retrieve the things they killed. I somehow doubt that these are people who need to kill in this way in order to eat. In the background there’s a church tower; the scene is one of rural England. |
