Partial Narrative/Legend (machine translated from French, no editing): The vignette of Rhidinger's composition represents the game feeding to dogs that takes place in this hunt. When the deer has arrived at the hunting area, we choose a place on the grass near the kennel, where we bring (in proportion to the number of dogs) two tubs filled with barley bread cut into small pieces; then if it is in in winter we set two full boilers on fire of water that we boil, and throw into each three pounds of fat, to dip the bread in the buckets. If it's in the summer, instead of fat, we take two buckets of freshly drawn milk, or well we boil a pot of water with it two or three pounds of fat, the bread is half-dipped in it, and the milk is then added. During as the poue prepares, we overturn the deer on the back & we tie him up, that is to say, we put his head under his shoulders to dress him more easily.Fig. 1. Feet of a ten-horned deer.
