EDITORS COMMENTS
Paul Pry, the beloved and mischievous character from John Poole's popular play of the same name, first performed in 1825, is depicted in this enchanting illustration from 1832. Dressed in the fashion of the 1830s, Paul Pry stands atop a hill in the countryside, gazing intently at various sporting events unfolding before him. With a top hat perched atop his head and a curious expression on his face, Paul Pry embodies the spirit of humour and intrigue that made him such a beloved figure. In this scene, Paul Pry watches as men engage in a variety of rural pastimes. To his left, a group of archers take aim, their bows drawn and arrows poised. In the foreground, a man fishes in a tranquil stream, his line cast out and a hopeful expression on his face. In the distance, a cricket match is in full swing, with players in crisp whites taking turns at bat. And on the water, a sailing regatta is underway, with sails billowing in the wind and oarsmen rowing in perfect unison. This illustration captures the essence of Paul Pry's insatiable curiosity and love for the world around him. With a piercing gaze and a keen interest in all things sporting, Paul Pry is the embodiment of the 1830s country gentleman, eager to experience the joys and challenges of the great outdoors. This charming and intricately detailed illustration is a delightful glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace and the simple pleasures of nature were cherished.
