EDITORS COMMENTS
Thomas Colleton Garth (1822-1907), a true master of the hunt and the esteemed Master of the Garth Foxhounds for over half a century, is depicted in this photograph. Taken during the height of his illustrious career, Garth is shown here in his riding attire, donning boots and spurs, ready to embark on another exhilarating day of foxhunting. Born in 1822, Garth was an Etonian, educated at one of the most prestigious schools in England. However, it was the thrill of the hunt that truly captured his heart and led him to a life dedicated to the pursuit of the elusive fox. The photograph, titled "A Very Old Master," captures the essence of Garth's passion and dedication to the sport. The vibrant red of his hunting coat stands out against the lush green landscape, while the determined expression on his face conveys the intensity and focus required to be a successful foxhunter. Garth's tenure as Master of the Garth Foxhounds spanned over five decades, during which he became a legendary figure in the world of foxhunting. His legacy lives on, not only through the countless memories created during his time as Master but also through the many traditions and customs that continue to be upheld by the Garth Foxhounds to this day. This photograph, taken during the late 19th century, is a testament to the rich history and enduring appeal of foxhunting, a sport that has captivated the imaginations of generations and continues to do so today.
