About the piece
Painted in 1892 by the celebrated French artist René Princeteau, this vibrant work captures the energy of a fox hunt with masterful precision. The composition centers on Count Geoffroy de Ruillé and his son astride powerful bay horses, leading a pack of hounds across a windswept field with the Château de Gallerande visible in the distant background.
