Gone Away is a notable painting by the British artist William Joseph Shayer, who was active during the 19th century. Shayer, born in 1811 and passing in 1892, was part of a family of artists and is often recognized for his contributions to the genre of sporting and animal paintings. His works frequently depict scenes of rural life, hunting, and equestrian activities, capturing the essence of the English countryside with a keen eye for detail and a vibrant palette.

Gone Away exemplifies Shayer's adeptness at portraying dynamic movement and his deep understanding of the subjects he painted. The painting typically features a hunting scene, a common theme in Shayer's oeuvre, where the excitement and energy of the chase are vividly brought to life. The title "Gone Away" refers to the moment in a hunt when the fox has left its cover and the hounds and hunters give chase, a critical and thrilling point in the sport of fox hunting.

Shayer's technique in Gone Away showcases his ability to render the textures of the landscape, the musculature of the horses, and the expressions of the figures involved. His use of light and shadow adds depth and realism to the scene, making the viewer feel almost a part of the action. The composition is carefully balanced, with a sense of movement that guides the eye across the canvas, capturing the urgency and excitement of the hunt.

The painting not only reflects Shayer's artistic skill but also provides a window into the social and cultural practices of the time, particularly the popularity of fox hunting among the British gentry. As with many of Shayer's works, Gone Away is appreciated both for its artistic merit and its historical significance, offering insight into the 19th-century British countryside and the leisure activities of its inhabitants.
