The artist's use of color and light enhances the realism of the scene, bringing to life the crispness of the morning air and the anticipation of the hunt.
Herring's background as a coachman and his intimate knowledge of horses are evident in the lifelike representation of the animals, each depicted with individual character and vitality.
