EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph by Joseph Strutt, titled 'Hawking Scenes,' offers a fascinating glimpse into the pastime of hawking during the 9th and 14th centuries in England. The central image showcases a Saxon nobleman and his falconer, dressed in traditional attire, engaged in the ancient art of falconry. The nobleman, with a regal expression and a determined gaze, holds a falcon perched on his gloved hand, ready for flight. His falconer, dressed in a simple tunic and hose, holds a long lure to entice the bird to hunt. Above the central image, ladies and men from the 14th century engage in the same pursuit, with their hawks in flight and prey in hand. The women, dressed in elegant gowns and headdresses, demonstrate their skill and grace in the sport, while the men, dressed in tunics and hose, display their strength and agility. The scene is set by a picturesque riverside, with dogs and other animals in the background, adding to the lively and vibrant atmosphere. Below the central image, another group of 14th-century hawkers are depicted, this time with a falcon in mid-flight, capturing its prey. The intricate details and rich colors of the lithograph bring the scenes to life, transporting us back in time to an era of noble pursuits and the thrill of the hunt.
