About the piece
Painted around 1840, Henry Thomas Alken’s scene captures the bustle and anticipation of 'the meet.' With meticulous detail, the artist depicts riders in traditional hunting pinks, fine-blooded horses, and eager hounds gathered near a thatched-roof cottage under a soft, overcast sky.
