There is a particular energy to a great hunting scene — not simply the depiction of animals in motion, but the capturing of anticipation itself. Full Cry, by British artist Arthur Alfred Davis, embodies that spirit beautifully. Known for his hunting and sporting works, Davis had a remarkable ability to convey movement and atmosphere, and in this scene the hounds are shown at the very instant they have caught the scent — alert, animated, and surging forward in eager pursuit. There is an immediacy to their movement, each figure contributing to the rhythm and momentum of the composition. The original work was painted in 1885, with this print produced by E.E. Leggatt in 1877, reflecting the enduring popularity of English sporting art during the late 19th century. Such scenes held a significant place in English culture, particularly within country house life, where the hunt was woven into both social tradition and the rural landscape itself. Sporting prints like this often hung in studies, libraries, and halls, serving as both decoration and reflection of countryside life. The work is presented in a lovely wooden frame that complements the warmth and movement of the composition beautifully, giving it a grounded and traditional presence. Hand selected in and imported from England, this framed print carries with it the atmosphere of the English countryside — the sound of hounds in motion, the energy of the chase, and the enduring tradition of sporting art within the home.
