Promenade des légendes - Le chasseur sauvage / the wild hunter

This painting was painted on the door of Pinocchio's workshop , formerly a puppet theater.

In the moonlight , the wild hunter crosses the country on his horse, driven by howling dogs .

The wild hunter appears mainly in legends about evil feudal lords. Other legends, on the other hand, have a teacher without God as the protagonist. He is often portrayed as an evil lord who is forced to wander eternally as a ghost as punishment for his misdeeds . "The Wild Hunter" appears as punishment for misdeeds or God's judgment.

It's the beginning of the Walk of Legends.

This artwork is part of the "Promenade des Legendes / Promenade des Légendes". It is a 2.2 km circular route in Laforêt where more than 10 creatures from the legends once told about fire are staged.
