Freeman’s is pleased to feature numerous works from the Collection of Mr.
and Mrs. Gerald and Lyn Hempt of Pennsylvania. More than 70 years ago,
the Hempt family founded and continues to operate the West Shore Polo
Club, and their family became heavily involved in thoroughbred horse
breeding in the 1940s. Mr. Loy T. Hempt successfully campaigned the
Maryland Horse of the Year, Hempt’s Lark (1974) in the thoroughbred
ranks, and notable pacing sires Adios and Keystone Ore were trained at
Hempt Farms. Mr. Max Hempt served as President of the Hambletonian
Society and his grandson, Mr. Max J. Hempt, now serves on their Board of
Directors. The Hempt’s have also remained actively involved in
Standardbred breeding and racing throughout the years, producing many
world record holders including: Stenographer (1954 Trotting Horse of the
Year), Fancy Crown (1984 Trotting Mare of the Year), trotting sires
Carlisle, Hickory Pride, and world champion, Speed Bowl. Gerald Hempt
served is a Joint Master of Fox Hounds for the Beaufort Hunt (PA), was
member of Rose Tree Fox Hunt (PA), hunted with various other organized
packs of fox hounds, and continues as a member of the Masters of Fox
Hounds Association of America. He also served as Chairman/President of the Pennsylvania National
Horse Show in Harrisburg. Mr. Hempt’s collection in Sporting Art began approximately forty years ago,
spurred by a genuine interest in animals and activities shown in the pieces he collected, and inspired by
famous collections such as Harry T. Peters, F. Ambrose Clark, and Paul Mellon.

(76.2 x 90.8cm)provenance:Frost and Reed Gallery, London.Roberts Gallery, Toronto, Canada.Acquired from the above, 1954.Private Collection, Virginia.$250,000-400,000note:Sir Alfred Munnings is widely considered to havebeen the greatest equestrian artist of thetwentieth century and his work continues to havea devoted following. The son of a miller, he wasborn in 1878 in Mendham, Suffolk in England. Atthe age of fourteen, he was apprenticed to aprinter in nearby Norwich and began to producegraphic work and posters; the sureness of linedemanded by the process of lithography wouldprove a constant throughout his artistic career.His skills as a fine artist were honed while alsoattending The Norwich School of Art in his sparetime. Despite the fact that he lost sight in his righteye due to an accident, Munnings’ formidabletalent soon became apparent, and from 1899onwards he would exhibit at the Royal Academy.Favoring rural scenes and representations ofgypsy life early in his career, the First World Wargreatly influenced his preferred subject matter.
From that time forward, the artist most oftendepicted the equine subjects that brought him thegreatest acclaim and which continue to be hismost sought after works. Although Munningssought to serve as a soldier during the Great War,he was deemed unfit to fight due to his partialblindness. However, he did act as War Artist forthe Canadian Cavalry Brigade and provided aninvaluable historic record of the wartime years. Munnings’ love of the Cornish landscapestemmed from visits he had made between 1910and 1914 to Newlyn, an area that was, at thattime, home to the renowned artists' colony whichhad formed around the school created byStanhope Forbes. He lived there for a time, andalso in nearby Lamorna, where another artists'circle had evolved. The contrast with the EastAnglian landscape was dramatic and his time inCornwall was a highly productive one, resulting insome of his finest landscapes.
An avid huntsman, Munnings naturally exploredsporting and hunting themes whilst there, anexcellent example of which can be seen in'Huntsmen and Hounds, North Cornish Hunt'. The present painting is one of a series of huntingscenes that the artist painted in Cornwall.Munnings had begun using the image of thesingle huntsman during his time in Mendham andSwainthorpe, and here he explores the motif againto great effect. The excitement of the hunt isaccentuated by the blurry movement of thehounds at the feet of the horse, while the vivid redtunic of another huntsman can seen emergingover the crest of the hill. The composition as awhole is firmly anchored by the striking centralfigure of the huntsman silhouetted against thesky.
