Samuel Jun Alken, an esteemed British artist and engraver of the 19th century, is renowned for his vivid and dynamic depictions of sporting scenes, particularly those involving hunting and equestrian pursuits. Among his notable works is the series "On The Scent; Full Cry; Tally Ho; And The Kill," which captures the thrilling and sequential stages of a fox hunt. This series exemplifies Alken's mastery in portraying movement, atmosphere, and the quintessentially British tradition of fox hunting.

"On The Scent" initiates the series, illustrating the moment when the hounds first catch the scent of the fox. The scene is characterized by the keen alertness of the dogs and the poised anticipation of the hunters, setting the stage for the ensuing chase. The second piece, "Full Cry," depicts the hounds in full pursuit of their quarry, with riders and horses in vigorous motion, embodying the excitement and intensity of the hunt. "Tally Ho," the third in the series, captures the climactic moment when the fox is sighted, and the hunters rally with renewed vigor, their cries echoing the traditional hunting call. The final piece, "And The Kill," concludes the narrative with the culmination of the chase, showcasing the hounds' triumph and the hunters' satisfaction.

Alken's work is celebrated for its meticulous attention to detail and the dynamic composition that brings each scene to life. His ability to convey the energy and drama of the hunt has made this series a significant contribution to sporting art. Through his skilled use of color, light, and perspective, Alken not only documents the sport but also evokes the cultural and social milieu of his time. The series remains a valuable artifact for both art historians and enthusiasts of British sporting traditions.
