Royal Loo Remembrance Challenge Cup
Narrative sculptures were a new idea in the 19th century. The theme of this group is falconry. A falcon has landed on the lady’s outstretched hand, while the falconer next to her stands ready to take over the bird. Lying on the ground is a heron, just caught by the bird of prey. King
William III had the silver cup made as the main prize for the international races that were organized by the Royal Loo Hawking Society on the grounds of Het Loo Palace.
