BIRD SHOOTING, 1880 - A Delightfully Amusing Glimpse into Scottish Grouse Hunting
EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time to the late 19th century with this wood engraving titled "BIRD SHOOTING, 1880". Capturing a lighthearted moment during a grouse shooting expedition in Scotland, this print offers a unique blend of humor and historical charm. In this scene, an upper-class hunting party is depicted amidst the picturesque moorland. The group consists of hunters from various generations - fathers passing down their passion for the sport to sons. Dressed in traditional Scottish attire, they eagerly await their chance to take aim at wild fowl and grouse. The image showcases not only the thrill of the hunt but also the comical moments that often arise during such outings. A mischievous dog playfully tugs on its master's jacket sleeve while a servant discreetly observes with amusement. These subtle touches add an endearing touch to what would otherwise be considered a serious pursuit. This wood engraving serves as both entertainment and insight into upper-class leisure activities of yesteryears. It transports us to an era when outdoor sports were cherished pastimes among aristocratic families seeking respite from city life. Displaying "BIRD SHOOTING, 1880" will undoubtedly spark conversations about history, tradition, and even our evolving relationship with wildlife conservation. This Granger Collection artwork invites you to appreciate its gentle humor
