Bachelor’s Hall; The Meet

1835 - 1836

Step into the world of 19th-century English fox hunting with this lively scene by Francis Calcraft Turner. Dressed in their signature red coats and top hats, a group of dashing riders on horseback gather at the grand gates of an estate, ready to join the hounds waiting eagerly in the distance. Painted around 1835, this piece captures the excitement and social prestige of 'The Meet,' where the local gentry would assemble before the chase began. It's a perfect snapshot of Regency-era leisure, complete with prancing horses and a tiny black dog tagging along for the adventure.
