British school (XX) - Caccia alla volpe

EXCEPTIONALLY WITHOUT RESERVE

Charming painting from the 20th century, oil on canvas, depicting an elegant equestrian scene with riders and hounds in a countryside landscape.

The composition clearly recalls the English painting tradition of aristocratic hunting, with figures in red jackets and horses depicted at a pause along a path immersed in nature.

The subjects are arranged with balance and harmony: in the foreground the horses, rendered with good anatomical accuracy, while the hunting dogs animate the scene with liveliness and a sense of movement.

The autumn landscape, characterized by warm golden tones and a soft, diffuse light, helps create a refined and decorative atmosphere, with trees and hills giving depth to the whole.

The brushwork appears fluent and pleasant, with a warm color rendering that enhances the entire composition, making the work particularly suitable for classical or distinguished rustic interiors.

Signature present in the lower right.
