EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Foxhunting: Breaking Cover" we are transported to the 19th century British countryside, where the excitement of a foxhunt is about to unfold. Painted by William J. Shayer in 1863, this masterpiece captures the essence of rural life and the thrill of this traditional sport. The scene depicts a group of elegantly dressed hunters on horseback, their costumes reflecting the fashion of that era. With their horses poised and ready for action, they eagerly await the moment when the hounds will flush out their elusive quarry from its hiding place. Shayer's attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke brings life and movement to each figure and animal portrayed. The composition draws us into the heart of nature as we witness this exhilarating chase through dense foliage and rolling hills. As we gaze at this oil painting on millboard, we can almost hear the baying hounds and feel our hearts race alongside those participating in this age-old tradition. It serves as a reminder of both man's connection with nature and his desire for adventure. "Foxhunting: Breaking Cover" by William J. Shayer transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate not only his artistic skill but also an important aspect of British heritage – one that continues to captivate enthusiasts even today.
