Born in 1785, Alken became one of the leading sporting artists of his time, capturing the essence of British country life during the early 19th century. "The Meet" refers to the gathering of hounds and hunters at the beginning of a foxhunt, a traditional and aristocratic British pastime.

The painting captures the vibrant and anticipatory atmosphere of the meet, with elegantly dressed riders on horseback, the pack of hounds, and the surrounding onlookers.

As an artist, Henry Thomas Alken left a significant legacy through his numerous paintings, engravings, and illustrations that document and celebrate British sporting culture.
