EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of partridge shooting in 1768, depicted through an exquisite oil on canvas painting by G. Eichel. Measuring at 16.5 x 22.3 cm, this artwork is a true gem held within a private collection. The scene unfolds with a picturesque countryside landscape as its backdrop, showcasing the beauty of rural England during the Georgian era. A group of men dressed in regency attire are seen engaging in this popular English sport, armed with guns and rifles ready for action. Horses play a crucial role in this pursuit, their strength and elegance evident as they stand patiently while their riders prepare to take aim. The cropped tail of one horse adds authenticity to the period portrayed. A loyal dog accompanies these hunters, eagerly awaiting any opportunity to retrieve fallen game amidst fields that stretch out into the distance. The presence of a walking stick or cane hints at both practicality and style among these gentlemen. The composition exudes tranquility despite being centered around an activity rooted in excitement and skillful marksmanship. It serves as a testament to the harmonious coexistence between man and nature during this time. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly captured every detail of this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection—a visual treasure that transports us back to an era where partridge shooting was not only enjoyed but also celebrated as part of English country life.
