About the piece

Painted in 1842 by Francis Calcraft Turner, this oil on canvas captures the formal 'Meet' of the Berkeley Hunt. The work masterfully balances the dignified figures of the riders and their horses with the lively energy of the hound pack, set against the soft, receding hills of the British countryside.
