Good Hunting
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a delightful and whimsical cartoon by the renowned British illustrator, Christopher Gifford Ambler, published in the prestigious Tatler magazine in 1931. Ambler, known for his exceptional talent in capturing the essence of dogs and horses, brings to life a charming scene of a foxhunt in this drawing. The cartoon depicts a group of scruffy and shaggy foxhounds, each with their unique character and personality, eagerly awaiting the start of the hunt. Their excited barks fill the crisp morning air, as they sit in a row, their tails wagging in anticipation. In the foreground, a well-groomed foxhound, with a smug expression, stands apart from the rest, seemingly uninterested in the impending chase. Ambler's masterful use of line and shading creates a sense of depth and texture, bringing the dogs to life on the page. The muted colors of the drawing perfectly capture the autumnal atmosphere of the hunt, with the rich reds, browns, and greens evoking the beauty of the English countryside. The title "Good Hunting" adds a playful touch to the image, as the dogs prepare for the exhilarating chase that lies ahead. Ambler's "Good Hunting" is not only a beautiful representation of the traditional British sport of foxhunting but also a celebration of the unique bond between man and his canine companion. This timeless cartoon continues to captivate audiences with its charm and wit, making it a must-have for any collection of classic illustrations.
