Painting Description
"Full Cry" is a painting by James Seymour (1702–1752), an English painter known for his works depicting horses, horse-racing, and hunting scenes. Created in the 18th century, "Full Cry" exemplifies Seymour's attention to the dynamism and drama of the hunt, a popular subject during the period. The painting captures a moment during a fox hunt, with the hounds in "full cry," a term used to describe the loud chorus of barking by hounds in pursuit of their quarry. The artwork reflects the energy and movement of the chase, with detailed rendering of the horses and hounds, as well as the landscape they traverse.
James Seymour was one of the leading sporting artists of his time, and his works were highly sought after by the British gentry, who were keen patrons of both the arts and field sports. "Full Cry" is representative of Seymour's artistic legacy and his contribution to the genre of British sporting art. The painting not only serves as a historical record of 18th-century social and sporting practices but also showcases Seymour's skill in capturing the essence of the hunt—a subject that required an acute understanding of equine and canine anatomy, as well as the ability to depict the speed and excitement of the event.
As a significant work within James Seymour's oeuvre, "Full Cry" continues to be appreciated for its artistic merit and as a cultural artifact from a period when hunting was an integral part of British aristocratic life. The painting is often discussed in the context of Seymour's broader body of work and the development of sporting art in Britain.
