About the piece
Painted in 1809 by John Nost Sartorius, this oil on canvas is a quintessential example of English sporting art. The composition features a huntsman in a traditional yellow coat atop a sturdy chestnut horse, surrounded by a lively pack of hounds as they move through a verdant, atmospheric landscape. Sartorius, a member of a famous dynasty of sporting painters, captures both the anatomical precision of the animals and the soft, expansive beauty of the British countryside.
