EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph from the 1920s, we are transported back in time to witness a hawking party in Saxon times. The scene is filled with excitement and energy as noble men and women gather together for a day of falconry, an ancient sport that was highly popular during this era. The artist, Allan Stewart, skillfully captures the essence of the moment, showcasing the intricate details of both human figures and their majestic birds of prey. Each character is dressed in elaborate Saxon attire, reflecting their social status and adding an air of authenticity to the scene. As we delve deeper into the image, we can almost feel the anticipation building up as these skilled hunters prepare to release their falcons into flight. The intensity on their faces speaks volumes about their dedication to this age-old tradition. This lithograph not only serves as a beautiful piece of art but also provides us with a glimpse into our rich history. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people found joy and entertainment through activities such as hawking. Through this print's careful composition and attention to detail, it becomes evident that Stewart has expertly captured a moment frozen in time - one that allows us to appreciate both our cultural heritage and the beauty of nature itself.
