Fox Hunters Relaxing Before a Fire in a Grand Mansion: A Scene from the 19th Century's Victorian Era This handcoloured steel engraving, titled "Fox Hunters Relaxing Before a Fire in a Grand Mansion," depicts a group of weary fox hunters taking a moment to unwind after a long day in the field. The image, created by renowned English caricaturist and illustrator John Leech, was published in Robert Smith Surtees' book "Plain or Ringlets?" in 1860 by Bradbury and Evans in London. The scene is set in Appleton Hall, where Jack Bunting, a distinguished gentleman, sits comfortably in a rocking chair, his tired expression reflecting the day's exertions. Jug Boyston, a jovial figure, occupies two chairs, his mud-splattered attire a testament to the rigors of the hunt. A mud-covered Jovey Jessop, with a top hat in hand and a whip at his side, completes the tableau. The hunters' ponies, their coats glistening with sweat, are tethered outside, their breaths visible in the crisp winter air. The hunters' pink coats, adorned with the traditional top hats and whips, add a touch of elegance to the scene. The warmth of the fireplace beckons, its flames casting a rosy glow over the room, as the hunters take a moment to reflect on the day's events. The scene is filled with a sense of camaraderie and relaxation, a testament to the enduring tradition of fox hunting in the 19th century. John Leech's illustration, with its comical and humorous touches, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the pursuit of the fox was a cherished pastime of the English gentry.
