Original Description
The lively hunting scene La Poursuite Du Renard Et La Cureé by John Nost Sartorius bursts with aristocratic energy and 18th-century sporting passion. Sartorius, a revered British sporting painter active from 1759 to 1828, masterfully captures the exhilarating chase across autumnal countryside – rearing horses, baying hounds, and red-coated hunters rendered with anatomical precision yet buoyant movement. These companion works exemplify the golden age of English fox hunting paintings, where Sartorius’ dynamic compositions and rich earth tones elevated equestrian art from documentation to dramatic storytelling. As part of the Nost artistic dynasty (his father and son were also sporting painters), these works hold historical significance in recording Georgian country pursuits while showcasing the transition from formal portrait-like hunting scenes to more atmospheric action pieces. The paintings’ blend of documentary detail and romanticized vigor make them prized examples of British Sporting Art now sought by collectors and institutions like the Tate.
For contemporary interiors, these works command attention best in traditional studies or executive offices where their grandeur harmonizes with wood paneling and leather furnishings. Consider pairing them with deep hunter green walls or warm taupe backdrops to accentuate the russet and ochre tones. Larger spaces benefit from displaying both pieces as a diptych (ideal above a fireplace or behind a desk), with each panel requiring approximately 60x90cm of breathing space. In modern settings, frame them in slender gilt to bridge classic and contemporary aesthetics. The dynamic diagonals of the composition create movement that energizes formal dining rooms or private libraries, while equestrian enthusiasts might layer them with vintage riding gear displays. Avoid overcrowding walls – these narrative-rich scenes deserve focal status with directed lighting to make the horses’ glossy coats shimmer.
