Copy after Rubens's "Wolf and Fox Hunt". Artist: Sir Edwin Henry Landseer (British, London 1802-1873 London). Dimensions: 16 x 23 7/8 in. (40.6 x 60.6 cm). Date: ca. 1824-26.Preparing to undertake his first major painting, The Hunting of Chevy Chase (City Museums and Art Gallery, Birmingham), the young Landseer made a pilgrimage to sketch Rubens's Wolf and Fox Hunt (Metropolitan Museum), a picture that had recently been acquired by Alexander Baring, later Lord Ashburton. Not only the subject but also the bravura brushwork and sparkling, transparent lighting effects reveal Landseer's fascination with Rubens's art.
