EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Jottings at the Horncastle Horse Fair" takes us back to a bustling street scene in 19th century England. The print captures the energy and excitement of this renowned horse fair, which was a significant event in the local community. The image showcases various elements that make up the vibrant atmosphere of the fair. In the foreground, we see people gathered around a red lion statue, engrossed in conversation and catching up with one another. Horses of different breeds and sizes are being showcased by their proud owners, parading them through the streets for potential buyers to admire. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully depicts every aspect of this lively event. From horses trotting gracefully to men placing bids on their favorite steeds, each figure tells its own story within this larger narrative. One cannot help but be drawn into this snapshot from history - witnessing not only an auction taking place but also glimpses of daily life unfolding around it. The presence of a bull ring adds an element of danger and excitement to the scene while gypsy caravans stand as colorful reminders of nomadic traditions still prevalent during that time. Overall, "Jottings at the Horncastle Horse Fair" offers us a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era when these fairs were not just about buying or selling horses but also served as social gatherings where people came together to celebrate their shared love for these majestic creatures.
