EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print, titled "Surtees's Handley Cross, or Mr. Jorrocks and the Dead Fox," is a striking representation of the popular 19th-century hunting character, Jorrocks, as depicted in the works of English author Thomas Surtees. The image, published in 1843, captures the moment of triumph and camaraderie among the hunting party after a successful fox hunt. Jorrocks, a fictional character created by Surtees, first appeared in the author's collection of humorous stories, "Jorrocks' Jaunts and Jests," published in 1835. The character quickly gained popularity due to his distinctive personality and witty dialogue, and became a symbol of the English hunting tradition. In this print, Jorrocks is depicted standing proudly over the dead fox, a symbol of his success and skill as a huntsman. The other members of the hunting party look on approvingly, their faces expressing a mix of admiration, amusement, and satisfaction. The scene is set in Handley Cross, a fictional village in Surrey, which became synonymous with Jorrocks and his exploits. The print's intricate detail and vibrant colors bring the scene to life, transporting the viewer back in time to the mid-19th century. The huntsmen are dressed in the traditional attire of the day, complete with tall hats, long coats, and riding boots. The horses are equally well-depicted, with their muscles tensed and coats glistening with sweat. This print is a valuable historical record of the hunting culture of the time, and a testament to the enduring popularity of Jorrocks as a literary character. It also serves as a reminder of the close connection between literature and visual art in the 19th century, as authors like Surtees inspired artists to create works that brought their stories to life in a new and captivating way.
