EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases George Stubbs' masterpiece, "Foxhound; Foxhound on the Scent" created around 1760. The renowned British artist's expertise in capturing the essence of animals is evident in this stunning oil painting on paper laid on board. In this exquisite portrait, a magnificent foxhound takes center stage against a backdrop of lush countryside. With its sleek black and white coat, the dog exudes elegance and strength as it stands alert, nose to the ground, diligently tracking an elusive scent. Stubbs masterfully captures every detail of the hound's muscular physique and intense gaze. The painting transports us back to 18th century England when hunting was not only a popular sport but also an integral part of country life. It serves as a testament to both Stubbs' technical skill and his deep understanding of animal behavior. Now housed at Yale Center for British Art, this heritage artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and remarkable realism. As we admire this piece, we are reminded of the enduring power that art holds in preserving history and celebrating our connection with nature.
