EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken in 1936, captures the essence of the traditional English sport of foxhunting in the Warwickshire Hunt area. The scene unfolds at Watergall, a popular covert in the Midlands region of England, where the hounds and their riders are in pursuit of a fox. The image exudes the spirit of the countryside, with its rolling fields, towering trees, and intricate hedgerows. The hounds, with their keen noses and determined expressions, are hot on the trail, while their riders, dressed in the iconic red coats and hunter green, follow closely behind. The landscape is dotted with quintessential English scenery, including stone walls, gates, and the occasional farmhouse in the distance. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and heritage of foxhunting in Britain during the 1930s, a time when the sport was deeply ingrained in the rural communities of the Midlands and beyond. The image is a beautiful illustration of the camaraderie, tradition, and excitement that surrounded the hunt, making it a must-have for any collection of historical sports or rural scenes.
