EDITORS COMMENTS
Edward Benjamin Herberte's captivating oil painting, titled "The Kill," showcases the thrill and excitement of a traditional hunt scene. Painted in the late 19th century, this masterpiece transports viewers to a time when hunting was a popular pastime among the upper classes of society. At the heart of the painting is a determined rider, dressed in the finest hunting attire, who has just successfully shot a fox. His horse, also adorned with hunting gear, rears up in excitement, adding to the dynamic energy of the scene. The red coat of the fox contrasts sharply with the green and brown tones of the forest, making the animal's demise all the more striking. A pack of hounds, led by a red-coated huntsman, can be seen in the background, following the scent of the fox. The huntsman raises his horn to signal the hounds to continue the chase, while other riders follow close behind. The painting captures the camaraderie and teamwork required in a hunt, as well as the raw power and instinct of both man and animal. Herberte's use of oil paints brings the scene to life, with intricate details in the textures of the rider's clothing, the horse's mane, and the rough bark of the trees. The painting is a testament to the artist's skill and the enduring appeal of hunting as a sport and social activity.
