EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and action-packed print, titled "The Bailiffs Hunt: Going Out in the Morning, In Full Scent, Breaking Cover (The Bailiffs Hunt: Going Out in the Morning, In Full Scent, Breaking Cover, and The Pursuit)" captures a lively scene from 19th-century Britain. Created by renowned artists Thomas Rowlandson and George Moutard Woodward, this hand-colored etching showcases their exceptional talent for depicting both human and animal subjects. In this image, we witness a group of determined bailiffs on horseback as they embark on their daily pursuit. Dressed in traditional hunting attire with colorful coats and top hats adorned with feathers, these debt collectors exude an air of authority. Their loyal pack of dogs eagerly leads the way as they chase down their targets. Rowlandson's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of the architectural elements surrounding the hunt. The grandeur of British buildings serves as a backdrop to this thrilling spectacle; front doors stand open while curious onlookers observe from windows above. "The Bailiffs Hunt" not only showcases the artistic prowess of Rowlandson and Woodward but also provides us with insight into an occupation that was prevalent during this era. This print is now part of The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection where it continues to captivate viewers with its dynamic composition and vivid colors.
