EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage print titled "Fox hunting in a garden" we are transported back to the enchanting world of Victorian England. The scene unfolds with members of the local fox hunt finding themselves amidst an unexpected and comical predicament - they have stumbled into the meticulously manicured garden of an infuriated Victorian gentleman. With their horses anxiously prancing about, the hunters appear bewildered as they navigate through rows of lush greenery. However, it is within the cucumber frame that chaos truly ensues. The delicate structure meant to protect tender plants now finds itself hosting a rather unconventional gathering - a group of determined fox hunters! Illustrated by John Leech and inspired by Rs Surtees' novel "Handley Cross; or, Mr. Jorrockss Hunt" this whimsical artwork captures both the elegance and humor synonymous with British countryside pursuits during this era. The attention to detail in every stroke brings life to each character's expression, highlighting their surprise and amusement at finding themselves entangled within such an unusual setting. This delightful print serves as a reminder not only of our fascination with nature but also our ability to find joy even in unforeseen circumstances. Linda Steward's preservation of this historical gem allows us to relish in its charm today, offering art enthusiasts an opportunity to own a piece that encapsulates both artistic mastery and cultural significance from 19th-century London.
