This humorous black and white sketch by John Leech, a British artist known for his satirical cartoons, captures a lively scene of a "meet," a gathering of fox hunters, before the hunt. The depiction of the riders on horseback and the surrounding onlookers, with their exaggerated expressions and poses, suggests a lighthearted portrayal of this social event. Leech's works often mocked the upper classes of Victorian England, and this sketch is likely a commentary on the sport and the people who participated in it.
