Painting Description
"The Meet; Full Cry; Over The Fence; And The Kill" is a series of four paintings created by the renowned British artist Henry Thomas Alken Jr., who was active during the early to mid-19th century. Alken, celebrated for his dynamic and vivid depictions of hunting, coaching, and sporting scenes, has left an indelible mark on the genre of sporting art. This particular series exemplifies his mastery in capturing the excitement and intricacies of the traditional English fox hunt.
Each painting in the series portrays a different stage of the hunt, offering a narrative progression that immerses the viewer in the experience. "The Meet" sets the scene with a gathering of hunters and their hounds, preparing for the chase. The atmosphere is one of anticipation and camaraderie, with Alken's attention to detail bringing to life the various characters and their mounts. "Full Cry" captures the thrilling moment when the hounds have picked up the scent and are in hot pursuit of the fox. The energy and movement in this piece are palpable, showcasing Alken's ability to convey speed and urgency.
"Over The Fence" depicts the hunters and their horses in mid-jump, navigating the obstacles of the countryside with skill and determination. This painting highlights Alken's keen understanding of equine anatomy and the challenges of the hunt. Finally, "The Kill" brings the series to a dramatic conclusion, with the hounds having successfully captured the fox. The sense of triumph and the culmination of the chase are evident in the expressions and postures of the figures.
Alken's work is characterized by its lively compositions, meticulous detail, and the ability to convey the spirit of the hunt. "The Meet; Full Cry; Over The Fence; And The Kill" stands as a testament to his talent and his contribution to the tradition of British sporting art.
