EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era, showcasing a fox hunting gentleman named Mr. Jug Boyston and his juvenile field. Taken in the 19th century, this handcoloured steel engraving after an illustration by John Leech brings to life the excitement and thrill of a traditional fox hunt. In this comical yet elegant scene, Mr. Jug Boyston is seen riding out with boys on ponies, surrounded by a group of riders dressed in their distinctive pinks attire. With his top hat and whip held high, he exudes an air of authority as he leads the chase through picturesque countryside. The Victorian era was known for its love of blood sports, and fox hunting was one such popular pastime among gentlemen like Mr. Jug Boyston. The image showcases not only the sport itself but also highlights the camaraderie between riders and their trusty steeds. John Leech's talent as a caricaturist shines through in this illustration, capturing both the humor and grandeur associated with horse racing and equestrian pursuits. His work for Punch magazine made him famous during his time. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to step back in time and appreciate not only the beauty of horses but also our historical connection to wildlife animals that were once part of everyday life on farms and estates across Britain.
