Hunting scene, watercolour engraving on paper signed by Cecil.

Hunting scene, watercolour engraving on paper signed by Cecil Aldin (1870-1935), an English painter renowned for his equestrian and hunting representations. The composition, very dynamic, illustrates a pack of dogs running at full speed in the foreground, chasing game across an open landscape. In the background, horsemen in red coats follow the hunt in a gently rolling countryside, dotted with hedges and bare trees, evoking a scene of autumn or winter. The treatment is fine and precise, particularly in the depiction of the moving dogs and horses, a hallmark of Aldin's talent. The sober and bright palette enhances the realistic and elegant atmosphere of this typical scene from the English tradition of hunting. Work presented in a wooden frame with a mount.
