Drawing a Cover, from Foxhunting - A Captivating Glimpse into the Thrill of the Hunt
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a thrilling moment in foxhunting history. "Drawing a Cover, from Foxhunting" engraved by Thomas Sutherland and beautifully reproduced in colour litho by Henry Thomas Alken, takes us back to the English countryside during an exhilarating hunt. The image showcases an idyllic rural scene with lush undergrowth, rustic fences, and expansive fields. Horseback hunters are seen searching for their prey alongside their loyal pack of hounds. The riders navigate through bracken-covered terrain as they follow the scent trail left behind by the elusive fox. In this dynamic composition, we witness skilled huntsmen on horseback expertly maneuvering through challenging obstacles while maintaining control over their spirited horses. The excitement is palpable as they eagerly anticipate catching sight of their quarry. The presence of a serene pond adds to the picturesque charm of this scene, reflecting both nature's beauty and man's pursuit of sport. A whip-wielding figure commands attention amidst the flurry of activity, guiding both dogs and riders towards success. This remarkable artwork is part of a set that offers viewers an immersive experience into one of England's most beloved sporting traditions. With its meticulous detail and vibrant colours, this print transports us back in time to witness firsthand the passion and dedication that define foxhunting as not just a sport but also an integral part of British heritage.
