"Gone to Earth" is an oil painting by the British artist Heywood Hardy (1842–1933), a painter and etcher known for his works depicting sporting scenes, animals, and genre subjects. The painting, which dates from the late 19th to early 20th century, captures a moment from the traditional British fox hunting scene, a subject for which Hardy gained considerable recognition.

The artwork's title, "Gone to Earth," refers to the moment in a fox hunt when the fox has eluded the hounds by seeking refuge in an underground burrow. Hardy's depiction is likely to emphasize the drama and tension of the hunt, a theme that was popular among the British gentry and resonated with the sporting and rural life of the era.

Heywood Hardy was known for his attention to detail, particularly in the accurate portrayal of horses and dogs, which he studied extensively. His works often reflect the social and cultural aspects of Victorian and Edwardian England, and "Gone to Earth" is no exception. It is a representation not only of a sporting event but also of a way of life that was an integral part of the British countryside tradition.

The painting's composition, use of color, and dynamic brushwork would typically reflect Hardy's skill in conveying movement and the liveliness of the hunt. As with many of his paintings, "Gone to Earth" would likely be characterized by its narrative quality, inviting viewers to engage with the story unfolding within the frame.

"Gone to Earth" by Heywood Hardy is part of his broader body of work that contributes to the understanding of British social history and the role of sporting art in the cultural landscape. It remains an example of Hardy's artistic legacy and his contribution to the genre of animal and sporting paintings in the context of British art history.
