It is perhaps the best-known painting in the Ashmolean Museum Oxford England.The painting is an early example of the effective use of perspective in Renaissance art with the hunt participants including people horses dogs and deer disappearing into the dark forest in the distance. It was Uccello’s last known painting before his death in 1475.
