EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating Victorian New Year card transports us back to the 19th century, immersing us in the exhilarating world of a fox hunt. The color lithograph print showcases an English School masterpiece, now part of a private collection. The scene unfolds against a picturesque backdrop of rolling hills and quaint cottages, evoking a sense of rural charm. A group of elegantly dressed riders donning their iconic red hunting jackets can be seen on horseback, eagerly pursuing their prey through the countryside. The focal point is undoubtedly the majestic fox gracefully darting across the landscape, skillfully eluding its pursuers. The hounds follow closely behind with determination in their eyes and tails held high, adding to the excitement and energy captured within this artwork. Every detail has been meticulously crafted – from the intricate brushstrokes that bring life to each rider's equestrian attire to the meticulous rendering of horses' muscular forms and powerful strides. Even down to their riding boots covered in mud from traversing rough terrain. This New Year card serves as both a celebration of tradition and an expression of good wishes for those who receive it. It encapsulates not only the thrill of fox hunting but also represents camaraderie among fellow hunters during this festive time. Through this enchanting image by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand one of England's most beloved pastimes - forever preserved within this remarkable piece of art history.
