Painting Description
"Full Cry" is an exquisite engraving by Huffman and Mackrill, based on an original painting by the renowned British artist John Frederick Herring Sr. Herring, who lived from 1795 to 1865, is celebrated for his masterful depictions of equestrian subjects, particularly racehorses and hunting scenes. His works are characterized by their dynamic compositions, meticulous attention to detail, and the ability to capture the spirit and movement of his subjects.
The engraving "Full Cry" exemplifies Herring's prowess in portraying the intensity and excitement of the hunt. The term "full cry" refers to the moment during a fox hunt when the hounds are in full pursuit of their quarry, baying loudly as they close in. This moment is often considered the climax of the hunt, filled with energy and anticipation. In this work, Herring's composition captures the frenetic pace and the coordinated effort of both the hounds and the hunters as they navigate the challenging terrain.
Huffman and Mackrill, the engravers responsible for translating Herring's painting into print, have done so with remarkable skill. Their engraving retains the dynamic quality of the original artwork, with intricate lines and shading that bring depth and texture to the scene. The collaboration between Herring and the engravers results in a piece that not only showcases the thrill of the hunt but also highlights the technical proficiency required to produce such a detailed and lifelike image.
"Full Cry" is a testament to the popularity of hunting scenes in 19th-century British art and the enduring appeal of Herring's work. It reflects the cultural significance of fox hunting during this period and the fascination with equestrian sports that permeated British society. Today, engravings like "Full Cry" are appreciated not only for their artistic merit but also for their historical value, offering a glimpse into the pastimes and passions of a bygone era.
