About the piece
Painted by Arthur Devis around 1745, this charming English conversation piece captures Leak Okeover and his companions at Okeover Hall. The scene features a delicate balance of human figures, spirited horses, and loyal hounds set against the rolling hills of the Staffordshire countryside and the imposing Palladian architecture of the family seat.
