EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil on canvas painting, titled "Coursing: setting off" by Samuel Alken, takes us back to the 18th century English countryside. The scene depicts a group of enthusiastic hunters and their sleek greyhounds preparing for an exhilarating coursing event. In this bustling yard filled with stables and kennels, we see the groom attentively tending to the magnificent dogs while a huntsman stands nearby, ready to lead them into action. The pack of greyhounds eagerly await their turn as they sense the upcoming pursuit. The artist skillfully captures the energy and anticipation in this moment. The vibrant colors bring life to each detail - from the horses patiently waiting in the stable to the hare darting away in fear. It is evident that coursing was not only a sport but also a way of life during this era. As we delve deeper into this masterpiece, we notice small nuances like walking sticks and canes carried by some individuals, highlighting their status and elegance. These details add depth to an already rich composition. Alken's meticulous brushwork showcases his love for capturing animals' grace and movement. This painting serves as a testament to his talent as well as an homage to traditional hunting practices that were prevalent at that time. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, "Coursing: setting off" transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both nature's beauty and man's relationship with animals during this period.
