Painting Description
"An Incident With The Quorn Hounds: 'a Scene Which Occurred At The Asser Drybrook Reservoir With The Quorn Hounds On Charnwood Forest, March 29th 1910. The Fox Having Been Killed In The Middle Of The Reservoir. One Of The Foot People Swam Out And D" is a painting by the British artist Heywood Hardy. Known for his detailed and dynamic depictions of hunting scenes, Hardy captures a dramatic moment in the storied history of the Quorn Hunt, one of the oldest and most prestigious fox hunting packs in England.
The painting illustrates a specific event that took place on March 29, 1910, at the Asser Drybrook Reservoir in Charnwood Forest. The scene is set with the Quorn Hounds, a pack renowned for their hunting prowess, having successfully chased and killed a fox in the middle of the reservoir. The title of the work suggests a remarkable act of bravery or determination, as it mentions "one of the foot people" swimming out to retrieve the fox. This phrase likely refers to one of the hunt followers or assistants who, despite the cold and challenging conditions, ventured into the water to recover the quarry.
Heywood Hardy's artistic style is characterized by his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to convey the energy and excitement of the hunt. In this painting, he skillfully captures the tension and movement of the moment, with the hounds eagerly surrounding the reservoir and the human participants engaged in the unfolding drama. The natural setting of Charnwood Forest, with its dense woodland and serene water body, provides a picturesque backdrop that contrasts with the intense action at the center of the composition.
This work not only showcases Hardy's technical skill and narrative ability but also serves as a historical document, reflecting the customs and practices of early 20th-century British fox hunting. The painting is a testament to the enduring appeal of this traditional sport and the community that surrounds it. Through his art, Hardy offers viewers a glimpse into a specific moment in time, immortalizing the bravery and dedication of those involved in the Quorn Hunt.
