Arthur Wardle, an eminent British painter renowned for his exceptional depictions of animals, created the works "Closing In" and "On The Scent" during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These paintings exemplify Wardle's mastery in capturing the essence and dynamism of wildlife, particularly focusing on the intricate details and natural behaviors of his subjects.

"Closing In" portrays a moment of intense focus and anticipation, often featuring predators or hunting dogs zeroing in on their prey. Wardle's keen observation skills and his ability to render the tension and energy of the chase are evident in the meticulous brushwork and lifelike representation of the animals. The composition typically emphasizes the dramatic interaction between predator and prey, highlighting the raw, instinctual aspects of nature.

"On The Scent," on the other hand, captures the preliminary stages of the hunt, where animals, usually hounds, are depicted following a scent trail. This painting showcases Wardle's talent in illustrating the keen senses and acute awareness of his subjects. The detailed portrayal of the animals' postures and expressions conveys their alertness and determination, drawing viewers into the narrative of the hunt.

Wardle's works are celebrated for their vivid realism and the emotional depth they bring to animal subjects. His ability to blend scientific accuracy with artistic expression has earned him a distinguished place in the world of wildlife art. Both "Closing In" and "On The Scent" are exemplary of his skill in creating dynamic, engaging scenes that resonate with both art enthusiasts and naturalists alike.

These paintings not only reflect Wardle's technical prowess but also his deep appreciation and understanding of the animal kingdom. Through his art, Wardle invites viewers to witness the beauty and drama of nature, immortalizing moments of the wild with remarkable clarity and emotion.
