EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The Kill / Jorrocks Hunt," depicts a pivotal moment in the chaotic scene of a fox hunt, as portrayed in the popular 19th-century novel "Jorrocks' Jaunts and Jests" by English author Jerrold and continued in "The Custard Pot Hunting Box" by R.S. Surtees. In the image, the eponymous character, Mr. Jorrocks, triumphantly raises his brush in victory as the hounds relentlessly tear apart the unfortunate fox, their jaws locked onto the hapless creature's body. The expression on Mr. Jorrocks' face is one of mad delight, his eyes gleaming with the thrill of the hunt. The scene unfolds on "Cat and Custard Pot Day," a traditional day of fox hunting in the English countryside. The year is 1853, and the era of fox hunting was in full swing, with the sport being a popular pastime among the aristocracy and gentry. This print captures the raw energy and excitement of the hunt, as well as the ruthless nature of the pursuit. The intricate details of the illustration are a testament to the skill of the artist, with the hunters and hounds rendered in meticulous detail, their forms and expressions conveying the intensity of the moment. The naturalistic backdrop of the English countryside adds to the authenticity of the scene, transporting the viewer back in time to an era of horse-drawn carriages, tweed jackets, and the thrill of the chase. This print is an invaluable historical record of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the world of 19th-century fox hunting and the role it played in the lives of the English gentry. It is a fascinating reminder of a time when the pursuit of the fox was a cherished tradition, and the thrill of the hunt was a source of great joy and pride for those who participated in it.
