A Shooting Trip at Vigo
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the essence of a thrilling hunting expedition in 19th century Spain. The engraving, created by an English School artist, depicts a group of enthusiastic hunters on their way to bag some game. The scene unfolds against the picturesque backdrop of Vigo's stunning landscape. As the party prepares for an afternoon shooting session, they carry provisions and equipment onto boats that will transport them to their destination. The main sheet proves useful in housing their salted provisions while merrily sailing towards their hunting grounds. Amidst laughter and camaraderie, the midshipman expertly navigates the boat as it glides through European waters. A tugboat accompanies them, serving as a means of transport and ensuring safe passage during this sporting adventure. Upon reaching their peak shooting spot, the hunters eagerly disembark from the boats and set out on foot to explore Vigo's wilderness. With guns in hand and determination in their eyes, they embark on a successful hunting trip. After days filled with excitement and exertion, it is time for some well-deserved repose. The return journey sees tired but contented faces aboard the boats as they make their way back to civilization. This print from Fine Art Finder transports us back in time to witness not just a mere shooting trip but also an exploration of nature's beauty intertwined with human spirit and companionship.
