Original Description
G.D. Giles’ Mr. Fernie’s Hunt: Going To The Meet, Going Away From Shawston, Full Cry And The Death is a dynamic quartet of works capturing the exhilarating yet perilous essence of foxhunting in 19th-century England. Each painting immerses viewers in the unfolding drama—from the anticipatory gathering of riders and hounds (Going To The Meet), the spirited pursuit (Going Away From Shawston), the chaotic intensity of the chase (Full Cry), to the somber climax (The Death). Giles, renowned for his equestrian and sporting scenes, employs meticulous detail and vigorous brushwork to render the horses’ muscular energy, the riders’ determined postures, and the pastoral landscapes with cinematic urgency. These works epitomize the Victorian era’s fascination with rural aristocracy and hunting culture, yet they also subtly critique its brutality. Positioned within the tradition of British sporting art alongside artists like John Ferneley and Alfred Munnings, Giles’ series stands out for its narrative continuity and emotional range, making it a valuable study in both social history and sporting imagery.
For display, this series would elevate a study, library, or office with classic or equestrian-themed décor. The ideal space would feature warm, muted tones—deep greens, ochres, or wood paneling—to harmonize with the paintings’ earthy palette and period charm. Each scene benefits from generous wall space; consider a linear arrangement in a hallway or above a fireplace to emphasize the narrative progression. Large, gilded frames would enhance their traditional appeal, while balanced lighting (avoiding glare) ensures the details shine. In a contemporary setting, pairing them with leather furniture or rustic wood accents creates a sophisticated contrast. For scale, a dedicated wall or alcove prevents overcrowding, allowing viewers to appreciate the drama of each moment. Whether in a country home or a corporate office, these works command attention, blending historical gravitas with timeless storytelling.
