Stunning English Fox Hunting Scene Antique Oil Painting Ornate Frame Dog Horse

Description: This is a striking oil painting depicting an English hunting scene, captured with a sense of movement and traditional elegance. Central to the composition is a gentleman dressed in a vivid red hunting coat, black breeches, and polished boots, carrying a hunting horn in his right hand. He is accompanied by a loyal hunting dog, poised and alert, perhaps tracking a scent in the earthy, wooded landscape. In the background, two white horses with riders in matching red coats add depth and context, reinforcing the theme of the hunt. The scene is shrouded in muted tones of brown, green, and gray, evoking a misty morning or the dim light of dusk, further accentuating the timelessness and serenity of the countryside setting. The painting is enclosed in a highly ornate, gilded frame featuring intricate Rococo-style scrollwork with floral and shell motifs. The richness of the frame complements the subject matter, enhancing the overall sense of grandeur and historical charm. Overall frame measures 18.25 inches high, 15.25 inches wide and 1.5 inches deep. The painting measures 13.25 inches by 9.75 inches and is executed on a heavy wood board. There is an artist signature in the lower right corner, French artist Maurice Blum (1832-1909). This work is circa 1890. Good antique condition, light signs of wear/handling.
