EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Renard the Fox" takes us back to the early 19th century, capturing a moment of alertness and intensity. Created by renowned artist Philip Reinagle in 1800 but published in 1922 as part of Walter Shaw Sparrow's book "British Sporting Artists: From Barlow to Herring" this artwork showcases the beauty and power of nature. In this outdoor scene, we see Renard, the fox, portrayed with remarkable detail and precision. His piercing yellow eyes stare directly at us, conveying a sense of cunning intelligence. The artist skillfully captures every strand of fur on Renard's head, highlighting his majestic presence against a dark backdrop. The image evokes a sense of timelessness and nostalgia for British blood sports that were prevalent during the 19th century. It serves as a reminder of Britain's rich literary tradition surrounding animals and their representation in art. Displayed within an exquisite publishing house like John Lane The Bodley Head Limited, this print is not only an artistic masterpiece but also holds historical significance. Its vibrant colors bring life to Renard's portrait while adding depth to Sparrow's exploration into British sporting artists. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece from the past, we are transported to another era where wildlife was celebrated through literature and visual arts. This print collector's treasure allows us to appreciate both its aesthetic value and its cultural context within British history.
