Original Description
The painting For'ard On, For'ard On by Thomas Blinks is a dynamic and exhilarating portrayal of the British fox-hunting tradition, capturing the raw energy and thrilling chase of hounds and horses in full pursuit. Blinks, a renowned 19th-century sporting artist, masterfully conveys movement and drama through his signature loose, impressionistic brushwork, creating a sense of speed and urgency that immerses the viewer in the action. Set against a typically English countryside backdrop, the painting reflects the artist’s deep understanding of equine anatomy and his ability to render animals in motion with remarkable accuracy. Though not as widely recognized as some academic masters, Blinks’ works hold a distinctive place in sporting art history, celebrated for their vitality and authenticity in depicting rural pursuits. For'ard On, For'ard On exemplifies his skill in balancing detailed realism with expressive energy, making it a prized piece among collectors of sporting and animal paintings.
When considering this artwork for home or office decor, it shines best in a classic or country-style setting where its rustic charm and movement can be fully appreciated. Ideal spaces include a study, library, or dining room with wood-paneled walls or rich, warm-toned furnishings that complement its earthy palette of browns, greens, and muted blues. To enhance its visual impact, pair it with traditional frames in gold or dark wood, and ensure ample lighting to highlight its dynamic composition. Given its likely medium-to-large size—common in sporting art—it should be placed as a focal point above a fireplace, sofa, or console table, with minimal competing artwork nearby. For a modern twist, juxtapose it with contemporary equestrian-themed decor or leather furniture, allowing the painting’s timeless energy to bridge classic and contemporary aesthetics seamlessly.
