EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Society of Royal Archers" a group of skilled archers depicted in an exquisite engraving by Cornelius Apostool. Created in 1794, this colour lithograph measures 71x83.5 cm and is currently held in a private collection under the care of The British Sporting Art Trust. The artwork transports us to a picturesque landscape where members of the Society engage in their leisurely pursuit. Men and women alike are seen with bows in hand, arrows poised to hit their targets with precision. The Georgian era setting adds an air of elegance and refinement to this scene. Accompanying these talented archers are loyal canine companions, faithfully observing each arrow's flight path. This image beautifully captures both the skillful artistry involved in archery as well as the camaraderie shared among its participants. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we cannot help but be drawn into a world where time seems to stand still—a moment frozen forever through Robert Smirke's and John Emes' artistic collaboration. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our busy lives, there is always room for leisurely pursuits that bring joy and connection. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of nature but also the timeless appeal of traditional sportsmanship—an ode to an age-old pastime that continues to captivate hearts across generations.
