EDITORS COMMENTS
This color illustration, titled "The Ledbury, Running Towards Eldersfield," is a stunning representation of the traditional English sport of hunting, as depicted in the painting by E. Meade-King, dated November 11, 1938. The image transports us back to the 1930s, showcasing the picturesque countryside of Ledbury, with its rolling hills, lush greenery, and quaint stone buildings. At the heart of the scene, a group of riders on horseback, dressed in their hunting attire, are in hot pursuit of a pack of hounds. The hounds, with their keen noses and determined expressions, lead the chase, leaping over fences and through fields in their relentless pursuit of the quarry. The horses, powerful and agile, carry their riders effortlessly over the terrain, their coats glistening with the morning dew. The winter season is evident in the illustration, with the bare trees and frost-covered ground adding to the sense of rugged beauty and raw energy. The scene is one of excitement and anticipation, as the riders and hounds close in on their quarry, the thrill of the chase palpable in every line and brushstroke. Meade-King's masterful use of color and composition brings this moment in time to life, offering a glimpse into the rich history and traditions of rural England. The painting is a testament to the enduring appeal of country sports and the connection between man and nature that has long defined the English countryside.
