The one question, which has yet to be answered and one can only guess at it, is who commissioned Uccello to carry out this work. We know that this was Uccello’s last major painting before he died in Florence in 1475 and historians think the painting was completed around about 1470. Art historians have come up with a couple of ideas but none our conclusive. I have already mentioned the crescent moon emblems on the horses livery and as well as being associated with Diana they were also the emblem of the Strozzi family. The Strozzi clan were an ancient and noble Florentine family who played an important part in the public life of Florence and this painting may have been commissioned by one of them. The other possibility was that Uccello painted this picture whilst he was still living in Urbino and before he returned to Florence. We know that he was in Urbino from 1465 to 1469 and if that was the case he could well have been commissioned by his patron, the Duke of Urbino, Federico da Montefeltro whose palace was full of works of art.

Many weapons and tools can be used while hunting along the Peninsula. Bows are one of the most common and beginner-friendly ways to hunt. Ranged weapons are generally the best bet for going after large prey. However, weak spears are just as effective a choice—assuming you know how to aim them!

The crescent moon, a symbol of Diana, the virgin goddess of the hunt, take shape in the horses' trappings. The idea of hunting by night is symbolic or playful rather than realistic. Paolo mapped out a framework on the surface of the panel, fixing a central disappearing point. The mechanisms of the huntsmen's spears, the logs and cut branches, as well as the area of water, signify this coherent space. The space is inhabited by the fading forms of animals and men; the viewer`s gaze is drawn deeper into the forest.
