1876
watercolor
From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
Fox hunting in Surrey is a 1876 watercolor by Randolph Caldecott, a British Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This drawing shows a group of men on horseback chasing a pack of hounds through an open field. The horses kick up dirt as they gallop, and the dogs spread out ahead, tails wagging. In the distance, a few riders watch from the horizon, while a small village sits quietly by the water. The artist used soft, blended colors to show the movement of the horses and dogs, making the scene feel lively but controlled. This style was common in 19th-century British drawings.
