EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Hunting, No 1 The Road to Cover" takes us back in time to the 19th century English countryside. A scene from an unidentified book of sports, this print captures the essence of a traditional fox hunt. The image showcases a group of hunters on horseback as they make their way along a picturesque road towards their destination - the cover where the fox is hiding. The hounds eagerly lead the way, their noses sniffing for any trace of their prey. The riders are dressed in hunting attire, exuding elegance and determination. The artist skillfully portrays the excitement and anticipation that fills the air during such hunts. The lush rural landscape adds to the charm and tranquility of this historical moment captured on paper. This engraving not only depicts a popular sport but also offers insight into pastimes and leisure activities enjoyed by people during that era. It serves as a reminder of our rich history and how different forms of entertainment have evolved over time. As we admire this artwork, we can almost hear the thundering hooves, feel the crisp autumn air, and sense the thrill coursing through both man and beast alike. This print truly encapsulates an important aspect of British culture while showcasing Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving historical art for future generations to appreciate.
