EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Harbourer with the blood hound for harbouring the stagg" from "The Gentlemans Recreation" a publication by Richard Blome in 1686. The engraving, created by an anonymous English artist of the 17th century, is part of a private collection. "The Gentlemans Recreation" was a comprehensive work that encompassed both an Encyclopaedia of the Arts and Sciences and a treatise on outdoor pursuits for gentlemen. Compiled and published by Richard Blome, this two-part masterpiece aimed to provide knowledge and entertainment to its readers. In this particular scene depicted in the engraving, we witness a gentleman engaged in stag hunting within a picturesque park setting. Accompanied by his loyal blood hound, he skillfully harbors the majestic stag as part of his leisurely pursuit. The illustration beautifully captures not only the excitement of sport but also highlights man's connection with nature during this popular pastime. As we delve into this historical artwork, it becomes evident that it holds significance beyond mere aesthetics. It serves as both documentation and inspiration for those interested in restoration literature or seeking insight into traditional gentlemanly activities. Through its intricate details and masterful execution, this print transports us back to an era where hunting was considered not just a sport but also an art form – one that required skill, patience, and appreciation for nature's wonders.
