Image of Augustus Baldwin Longstreet's sketch "The Fox Hunt," which appears in his Georgia Scenes (1835). This drawing depicts a man riding a black horse, which is mid-stride. Another hunter can be seen in the background.
Underlying all of the sketches of Georgia Scenes is the tension between town and country and the gradual emergence of social and moral controls over the violence and unrestrained behavior of the frontier. - Metadata URL:
