About this work

This hand-colored drawing by Samuel Howitt, titled The Check, shows a fox hunt on open ground. Two riders in the foreground, one in a red coat and one in blue, rein in grey and brown horses while a pack of hounds scatters and sniffs across the field. Smaller figures and more hounds recede toward a pale blue distant horizon under a soft, warm sky.
