Leslie Cope Fox Hunt Painting
32 x 26 inches. Artist signed. A traditional fox hunt scene executed in an Impressionist style by Leslie Cope. The composition, painted in oil on board, depicts a gathering of riders in red and navy hunt coats emerging from a large arched stone gateway of a ruined castle. A pack of foxhounds dominates the foreground, rendered with gestural, textured brushwork. The color palette is composed of warm earth tones, including ochre, sienna, and umber, contrasted with the blues of the sky and the vibrant red of the huntsmen's attire. The work is signed three times in dark pigment in the lower right corner (photo 2). The primary signature is a larger painted inscription reading Leslie Cope - 1990. This is positioned between two smaller signatures, one above and one below, both reading Leslie Cope. The board is mounted within a light blue fabric-covered mat with clipped corners and housed in a dark wood frame.
