EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Scandalous Interference: Facey Romford's Unruly Antics at the Hunt" This handcoloured steel engraving, created by the renowned English caricaturist and illustrator John Leech, depicts an intriguing scene from Robert Smith Surtees' novel "Mr. Facey Romford's Hounds." In the image, a daring Huntsman, identified as Facey Romford, is seen leaping over a high fence on the back of an old, lame horse, while simultaneously interfering with the pack of hounds. The expression of irritation on the face of the gentleman in the wheelchair, Jonathan Lotherington, suggests that Romford's actions are not only disruptive but also unwelcome. The Victorian-era hallway in the background, adorned with ornate furnishings and a billiard room, adds an air of sophistication to the scene. The contrast between the formal setting and Romford's unruly behavior creates a comical and humorous juxtaposition. In the crowd, a young woman in bloomers and a Turkish dress, likely a symbol of the feminist and reformist fashion trends of the time known as "bloomerism," observes the scene with a smirk. Sir Thomas Trout, Constania Mendlove, and other hunt members look on in disbelief. The intricate details of the handcoloured steel engraving, reminiscent of the 19th century, bring the vivid scene to life, transporting us back in time to an era of change and transformation. The caricature's comical and humorous portrayal of Romford's antics offers a fascinating glimpse into the social norms and values of the Victorian era.
