Painting Description
"The Meet; The Find; Full Cry; The Kill: A Set Of Four" is a notable series of prints created by Samuel Jun Alken, a distinguished British artist and engraver active during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Alken, who was part of a prolific family of artists, is renowned for his detailed and dynamic depictions of sporting scenes, particularly those involving hunting and equestrian activities. This series, often celebrated for its vivid portrayal of the traditional English fox hunt, captures the various stages of the hunt in a sequence of four distinct prints.
Each print in the series serves to illustrate a specific moment in the fox hunting process, beginning with "The Meet," where hunters and hounds gather in anticipation of the chase. This is followed by "The Find," which depicts the moment the hounds catch the scent of the fox. "Full Cry" captures the exhilarating chase, with hounds and riders in full pursuit of their quarry. The series culminates with "The Kill," portraying the conclusion of the hunt as the hounds catch the fox.
Alken's work is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and dynamic composition, effectively conveying the excitement and energy of the hunt. His ability to capture the movement and spirit of both the animals and the hunters has made this series a cherished example of sporting art. The prints not only serve as a visual record of a popular pastime of the British gentry but also reflect the cultural and social aspects of the period.
"The Meet; The Find; Full Cry; The Kill: A Set Of Four" remains an important work within the genre of sporting art, illustrating Alken's skill in engraving and his deep understanding of the subject matter. The series continues to be appreciated by art collectors and historians for its historical significance and artistic merit.
