EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Ned and Colin Ross with Hunt Trophy, ca. 1857" we are transported back to the 19th century Scottish countryside. Renowned photographer Horatio Ross captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the proud hunters Ned and Colin Ross standing beside their impressive trophy head. Dressed in traditional Victorian hunting attire, these men exude both elegance and masculinity. Their plus fours, tailored coats, and rifles reflect the fashion of the era while emphasizing their passion for outdoor activities like hunting. The stag's majestic antlers loom above them as a testament to their skillful marksmanship. This image not only celebrates the spoils of a successful hunt but also provides us with a glimpse into Scotland's rich heritage of blood sports during that period. It serves as a reminder of how hunting was once considered an integral part of country life and an expression of manhood. As we delve deeper into this photograph, it becomes apparent that there is more than meets the eye. Beyond its aesthetic appeal lies a complex narrative about life, death, war, and weaponry - themes prevalent during that time period. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of its collection on 19th-century heritage art, this salted paper print by Horatio Ross invites us to contemplate our relationship with nature and our historical connection to traditions long gone by.
