EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports viewers to the picturesque countryside of 19th century Britain. Created by renowned artist Henry Thomas Alken, this artwork captures the essence of fox hunting, a popular sport during that era. In this vibrant scene, two men on horseback are depicted mid-air as they fearlessly leap over a gushing stream. The horses' powerful strides and the riders' determined expressions convey their agility and skill in navigating challenging terrains. A loyal dog accompanies them, adding an element of excitement to the pursuit. Alken's masterful use of color brings life to every detail: from the rich brown hues of the horses' coats to the vivid red jackets worn by both men. The illustration exudes energy and movement, immersing viewers in an exhilarating moment frozen in time. This print is featured in "British Sporting Artists: From Barlow to Herring" a book by Walter Shaw Sparrow published by John Lane The Bodley Head Limited in 1922. It showcases Alken's exceptional talent alongside other esteemed British sporting artists. As we gaze upon "Over the Stream" we can't help but feel captivated by its beauty and transported back to a time when horseback pursuits were not only thrilling but also integral parts of British culture. This artwork serves as a testament to Alken's legacy as one of Britain's most celebrated painters of equestrian scenes.
