Diana in the Straw, or A Treat for Quornites, January 1,1804
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a delightful and humorous print by Thomas Rowlandson that captures the essence of British fox hunting culture in the early 19th century. The hand-colored etching showcases Rowlandson's artistic talent and his ability to bring life to his subjects. In this charming scene, a group of well-dressed gentlemen known as "Quornites" are gathered around Diana, an elegant foxhound. They seem to be thoroughly entertained as they watch her playful interaction with a litter of adorable fox cubs nestled in straw. The vibrant colors add depth and character to each figure, highlighting their enthusiasm for this unique treat. Rowlandson's work not only reflects the love for hunting but also draws inspiration from classical literature. The mention of Ovid's epistles suggests a connection between ancient mythology and contemporary British society. By combining elements from different realms - animals, people, literature - Rowlandson creates a captivating narrative that appeals to both art enthusiasts and history buffs. This artwork can be found at The Metropolitan Museum of Art where it stands as a testament to Rowlandson's skillful craftsmanship and his ability to capture moments that transcend time. It serves as a reminder of Britain's rich cultural heritage while providing us with an amusing glimpse into the world of foxhunting during the early 19th century.
