EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled 'White-Ear escapes up a tree and looks down at the baying hounds,' is a timeless masterpiece from the year 1912, taken from the pages of an esteemed children's book. The illustration, created by the renowned artist Cecil Aldin, showcases a cunning and mature white fox (Vulpes vulpes) in the midst of an exhilarating escape. The fox, with its distinctive white ear standing out against its reddish-brown coat, deftly climbs an oak tree, its bushy tail curled around a sturdy branch for balance. Below, a pack of determined hounds bays and barks, their noses to the ground, following their quarry's scent. Their eyes are fixed on the tree, their ears pricked in anticipation of a successful hunt. The intricate details of the illustration transport us to a bygone era, where the art of fox hunting held a significant place in the social fabric of the community. The historical context adds an extra layer of depth to the image, making it a fascinating piece for collectors of wildlife art and those with an appreciation for the natural world. The illustration is a testament to Aldin's exceptional artistic skills, capturing the essence of the animals' movements and expressions with remarkable accuracy. The use of warm colors and the play of light and shadow adds to the overall charm and appeal of the image. This beautiful piece of art serves as a reminder of the enduring bond between man and nature, and the thrill of the chase that has captivated generations. Whether you're an avid collector, a nature enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of illustration, this print is sure to be a treasured addition to your collection.
