Original Description
Cecil Charles Aldin’s Crossing A Brook; In Full Cry is a vibrant and dynamic portrayal of the quintessential English fox hunt, capturing the exhilarating moment as horses and hounds surge through rushing water. Aldin, a master of sporting art, employs loose yet energetic brushstrokes and rich earthy tones to convey movement and atmosphere, immersing viewers in the thrill of the chase. Painted in the late 19th or early 20th century, the work exemplifies his signature ability to blend realism with a lively, almost impressionistic flair. As a prominent illustrator and painter of rural life and animals, Aldin’s works are celebrated for their narrative charm and technical skill, occupying a unique space in British sporting art alongside figures like Sir Alfred Munnings. This piece, in particular, reflects the nostalgia for country pursuits during the Edwardian era, making it a treasured artifact of its time.
For a striking decorative statement, Crossing A Brook; In Full Cry would elevate a traditional study, hunting lodge, or rustic-chic living room. Ideal above a fireplace or along a wood-paneled wall, the painting’s warm browns, greens, and muted blues harmonize with leather furnishings, tartan textiles, or weathered oak furniture. A mid-to-large size (around 24x36 inches) ensures visibility without overwhelming the space. Pair it with brass-framed hunting prints or antique riding gear to reinforce the theme, or let it contrast against minimalist decor for an unexpected focal point. In an office, it lends a sense of heritage and vigor—perfect for a corporate executive suite or a country club setting. The dynamic composition and historical charm make it a conversation piece that bridges classic elegance and spirited energy.
