About the piece
Painted around 1840 by renowned sporting artist Henry Thomas Alken, this oil on canvas depicts 'The Kill,' a pivotal moment in a traditional English fox hunt. The composition features riders in vibrant hunting pinks and a pack of hounds gathered near a rustic thatched cottage, set against a vast, rolling countryside under a soft, atmospheric sky.
