EDITORS COMMENTS
The Leap," an exquisite aquatint print by Charles Bentley, captures the thrilling moment of a fox hunt in 19th century England. The scene unfolds on the lush, green fields and farmland, where a determined rider and his loyal foxhounds are in mid-air, leaping over a deep ditch in pursuit of their quarry. The foxhounds, with their keen noses and powerful muscles, are poised to make the next leap, their eyes fixed on the elusive fox that has darted through the undergrowth. The rider, dressed in traditional hunting attire, is fully committed to the chase, his body taut with focus and determination. The blood-red coats of the foxhounds contrast sharply with the green and brown tones of the countryside, adding a vibrant burst of color to the otherwise monochromatic scene. The intricate details of the print, from the textured fur of the dogs to the rippling water in the ditch, showcase Bentley's exceptional skill as an etcher and his deep understanding of the natural world. This work of art, a testament to the rich heritage of British sporting art, invites us to experience the excitement and passion of fox hunting in the 19th century.
