EDITORS COMMENTS
Foxhunting: Clearing a Bank, c. 1840 captures the exhilarating spirit of this traditional British sport. In this oil on board masterpiece by John Dalby, we are transported to the heart of the action as a skilled horseman leaps over a formidable bank with his trusty steed. The painting, measuring 12.7x15.6 cm, is part of the esteemed Paul Mellon Collection at Yale Center for British Art in the USA. Dalby's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, from the intricate rendering of each horse and rider to the lush countryside backdrop that sets the scene for this thrilling pursuit. Clad in traditional hunting attire, these equestrians embody elegance and grace as they navigate through hedges and rural landscapes. The masterful composition not only showcases their physical prowess but also conveys a sense of camaraderie among fellow hunters who share an unyielding passion for this age-old tradition. Foxhunting has long been regarded as both a sport and an art form, capturing the essence of English culture. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate Dalby's skillful depiction of movement and capture a glimpse into an era when foxhunting was at its zenith. It serves as a reminder that while times may change, there are timeless pursuits that continue to unite people across generations.
