The Dog Breaker
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the early 19th century, when field sports were an integral part of English culture. Engraved by Robert Havell the Elder and published in 1814 by Robinson and Son, this exquisite artwork showcases the expertise of both artist and engraver. The scene depicts a group of spaniels on the moors, with their trainer or "dog breaker" guiding them through their paces. The Yorkshire Trades are highlighted here, as these particular trades were unique to the north of England due to its vast moorlands and abundant grouse population. The color lithograph by George Walker beautifully captures the essence of this traditional hunting practice. It transports us into a world where men would spend hours training their loyal canine companions for successful hunts. Grouse and partridge fill the air, creating an atmosphere brimming with excitement and anticipation. This print from "The Stapleton Collection" offers us a glimpse into history, showcasing not only the artistry involved but also shedding light on pastimes that have shaped our cultural heritage. As we admire this piece today, let it serve as a reminder of our connection to nature and our enduring fascination with field sports.
