Painting Description
"Jumping, plate from 'The Right and The Wrong Sort', in Fores Hunting 1859" is a notable work by the English painter and engraver Henry Thomas Alken (1785–1851). This work is part of a series that Alken created to illustrate various aspects of hunting, a popular and traditional British sport. The series, published in 1859 by Fores, a London art publisher known for sporting prints, depicts scenes contrasting the correct and incorrect ways of engaging in hunting activities, hence the title "The Right and The Wrong Sort."
The plate titled "Jumping" specifically captures a moment of equestrian action, showcasing the skill and technique involved in navigating obstacles during a hunt. Alken's expertise in depicting horses and sporting scenes is evident in the dynamic composition and the detailed rendering of the figures and animals. His work often reflected the humor and spirit of the sporting life in the 19th century, and "Jumping" is no exception, potentially highlighting the consequences of the 'wrong sort' of jump in a humorous light.
Henry Thomas Alken's contributions to the genre of British sporting art were significant, and his works, including the plates from "The Right and The Wrong Sort," are considered valuable records of the sporting culture of his time. They are often sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of equine and hunting art. The series not only serves as an artistic endeavor but also as a social commentary, reflecting the values and attitudes of the British gentry towards hunting and outdoor sportsmanship during the 19th century.
