EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning artwork titled "A Foxhound" by the renowned artist George Stubbs. Created around 1760, this oil painting on paper laid on board captures the essence and beauty of a foxhound with remarkable precision and skill. Measuring 14.6x22.2 cm, this masterpiece is housed in the prestigious Yale Center for British Art as part of the Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. The image portrays an elegant foxhound standing tall and proud, exuding strength and gracefulness. Its sleek coat shines under the light, emphasizing its muscular physique and alert expression. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, capturing even the finest features of this majestic creature. This artwork not only celebrates the aesthetic appeal of dogs but also reflects their historical significance in bloodsports during that era. While it may be uncomfortable to acknowledge these practices today, it serves as a reminder of our evolving relationship with animals throughout history. As we admire this extraordinary piece through Bridgeman Art's high-quality reproduction, we are transported back to a time when hounds were revered companions and tools for hunting expeditions. This print allows us to appreciate Stubbs' exceptional talent while contemplating our complex connection with animals both past and present.
