Now my lad, mind the huntsmen!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment of excitement and anticipation in the world of fox hunting. Taken from Mr Jorrocks Lectors, a publication by Hodder & Stoughton in 1910, this colourful lithograph by George Denholm Armour transports us back to a time when hunting was not just a sport but also an integral part of English countryside culture. In this scene, we see a group of elegantly dressed hunters on horseback, surrounded by their loyal pack of hounds. The costumes and followers depicted here showcase the traditional attire worn during these exhilarating pursuits. The vibrant colours used in the litho bring life to the image, making it feel almost as if we are standing right there amidst the action. The commanding figure at the center is instructing his young apprentice with utmost seriousness: "Now my lad, mind the huntsmen!". His words carry both wisdom and responsibility as he imparts knowledge about tracking foxes and following proper hunting etiquette. It is evident that this age-old tradition has been passed down through generations. This print serves as a window into history, reminding us of our connection to nature and our cultural heritage. It encapsulates not only the thrill of chasing after elusive prey but also highlights camaraderie among fellow hunters. As we gaze upon this artwork today, let us appreciate its beauty while acknowledging its historical significance in shaping rural England's identity.
