EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Death" a scene from Lord Edward Tynnes Gold Snuff Box painted with Foxhunting scenes in 1832-33. Created by the talented artist John E. Ferneley (1782-1860) or attributed to him, this masterpiece is an oil painting on gold measuring 3.8x8.6 (d) cm. Immersed in a picturesque landscape, we witness the thrilling pursuit of fox hunting unfold before our eyes. The composition features riders elegantly galloping through a rural setting, accompanied by their loyal dogs and horses. The tension builds as they approach the climactic moment - "the kill". A majestic tree stands tall amidst the action, adding depth and grandeur to the scene. This artwork not only captures the excitement of country sport but also highlights elements of natural history and botany. Scientific methods are subtly incorporated into this piece through depictions of various dog breeds such as deerhounds, basset hounds ("les chiens bassets"), collies, and guard dogs. The print allows us to appreciate every detail meticulously crafted by Ferneley or his attributed hand. It transports us back in time to experience the thrill and beauty of traditional bloodsports like fox hunting while appreciating nature's wonders. Displayed at Yale Center for British Art as part of Paul Mellon Collection in USA, this artwork serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and historical significance within British culture.
