EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph print, taken in the picturesque village of Sutton Ambion in Leicestershire during the Atherstone Hunt in 1936, captures the essence of rural British sporting tradition. The scene unfolds in the rolling hills and open fields of the Midlands, with a line of hounds and their riders in pursuit of a fox through the golden autumn foliage. The flat countryside is dotted with trees, hedges, and stone walls, providing a picturesque backdrop to the action. The Atherstone Hunt, one of the oldest in the country, has a rich history that dates back to the 16th century. Foxhunting was a popular pastime in the 1930s, attracting participants and spectators from all walks of life. The sport, which involves following a fox on horseback, was a cherished tradition in the rural communities of the East Midlands and beyond. The photograph captures the excitement and energy of the hunt, with riders and hounds in full pursuit of their quarry. The hounds, with their keen noses and powerful legs, run through the fields, their bells ringing in the crisp autumn air. The fox, cunning and elusive, darts through the hedgerows, trying to evade its pursuers. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of rural life and sporting tradition. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural significance of foxhunting in Britain, and the enduring appeal of the countryside and its natural beauty.
