Antique Aquatint 'Earth Stopper' by J. Clark, 1820
About the Item
Hand-colored aquatint made after Henry Alken by J. Clark. Published by T. McLean, London, 1820.
The antique aquatint titled 'Earth Stopper' by J. Clark represents a scene related to hunting or foxhunting, considering the context of many aquatints and artworks from that era.
The term 'Earth Stopper' refers to a person involved in the practice of foxhunting, specifically someone responsible for blocking or stopping the fox's escape routes or earths, which are underground dens or burrows where foxes take refuge. This activity was part of the preparation for a fox hunt, ensuring that the fox would follow the planned route.
As an aquatint, this artwork would have been created using the aquatint printmaking technique, which allows for tonal variations and rich detail. It depicts a scene from a hunting expedition or foxhunt, featuring a character engaged in the role of an Earth Stopper, preparing for the upcoming hunt.
Artworks from this period often celebrated the traditions and practices associated with country life and hunting, showcasing the outdoor pursuits and customs prevalent in 19th-century England.
