British school (XX) - Caccia alla volpe

EXCEPTIONALLY WITHOUT RESERVE

A charming 20th-century painting, oil on canvas, depicting an elegant equestrian scene with riders and dogs in a countryside landscape.

The composition clearly recalls the English artistic tradition of aristocratic hunting, with figures in red coats and horses depicted at a pause along a path set 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 soft, diffuse light, helps to create a refined and decorative atmosphere, with trees and rolling hills adding depth to the overall scene.

The brushwork appears fluid and pleasant, with a warm color rendering that enhances the whole composition, making the work particularly suitable for classic or high-quality rustic interiors.

Signature present in the bottom right.

Ebony-stained wooden frame with gilded profiles, elegant and well-proportioned, which frames and enhances the work.
