"The Fox Hunt" is an oil painting by Heywood Hardy (1842–1933), a British artist known for his paintings of sporting scenes, animals, and genre subjects. Created in the late 19th or early 20th century, this work exemplifies Hardy's skill in capturing the dynamism and aristocratic culture of the traditional English fox hunt, a subject that was popular among the British gentry and a frequent theme in his oeuvre.

The painting depicts a moment of intense action, with a group of hunters on horseback, accompanied by a pack of hounds, in pursuit of a fox. Hardy's attention to detail is evident in the realistic portrayal of the horses and dogs, as well as the lush countryside setting. The composition conveys the movement and excitement of the chase, while also reflecting the social aspects of the hunt, with elegantly dressed gentlemen and ladies participating in the event.

Heywood Hardy was celebrated for his ability to render the nuances of equine and canine anatomy with accuracy and vitality, and "The Fox Hunt" is a testament to his expertise in this genre. The painting is a valuable historical record of the fox hunting tradition, which has since become a subject of controversy and has undergone significant changes in the United Kingdom due to animal welfare concerns and legal restrictions.

"The Fox Hunt" by Heywood Hardy is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a cultural artifact, offering insight into the leisure activities of the British upper class during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods. The work is part of Hardy's broader legacy as a painter who vividly chronicled the sporting life of his era.
