EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the cruel and fierce practice of bear-baiting during Saxon times. Created by Richard Caton Woodville II in the 1920s, this illustration from "Story of the British Nation" immerses us into a world where entertainment was found in the suffering of animals. The image showcases a crowd gathered at a fair, eagerly watching as a bear is baited by dogs. The concept of cruelty is evident as we witness the intense struggle between these powerful creatures. The monochrome tones add depth and intensity to the scene, emphasizing both the brutality and excitement that surrounded such events. In this snapshot from history, we are reminded of how different our values have become over time. What may have been considered funfair entertainment in those days now evokes feelings of shock and disbelief. It serves as a stark reminder of our progress towards more compassionate treatment of animals. Richard Caton Woodville II's skillful depiction transports us to an era long gone but not forgotten. Through his artistry, he captures both the fascination with such spectacles and also prompts reflection on our evolving societal norms regarding animal welfare. This print from "Bear-baiting in Saxon times" stands as a testament to human history - reminding us that even within our own past lies evidence of practices we would now find abhorrent.
