About the piece

Painted in 1842 by Francis Calcraft Turner, this oil on canvas depicts a key moment in the Berkeley Hunt. The scene is filled with movement as riders in traditional scarlet coats navigate fences and terrain alongside an active pack of hounds, all set against the soft, atmospheric rolling hills of the English countryside.
