EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing Regency-era print, a dapper gentleman, dressed in the height of fashion with a tall hat adorning his head, finds himself in a precarious situation as his horse bolts unexpectedly. The scene, depicted in Thomas Rowlandson's handcoloured copperplate engraving after an illustration by Henry Bunbury, is taken from Geoffrey Gambado's "An Academy for Grown Horsemen and Annals of Horsemanship," published in London in 1809. The gentleman, holding the reins tightly, leans forward in an attempt to regain control as his horse passes a carriage on the road. The panicked animal, sensing danger, veers off course and charges towards a nearby chicken coop. The rider's expression is a mixture of shock and determination as he rides full gallop into the coop, hoping to bring his unruly steed to a halt. A farmer, in disbelief, watches the scene unfold with horror from the background. The chaos of the situation is further emphasized by the scattered chickens and overturned coop in the foreground. The gentleman's hat flies off his head as he passes a gig, adding to the sense of disarray. Despite the chaos, the gentleman remains focused, using every ounce of his skill and experience to bring his horse under control. The print serves as a reminder of the importance of mastering horsemanship and the potential consequences of losing control in such a public and potentially damaging way. The intricate details of the gentleman's saddle, whip, and bit are beautifully rendered, showcasing the high level of craftsmanship that went into creating this caricature.
