EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing hand-colored copperplate engraving, titled "How to Travel Upon Two Legs in a Frost," depicts a daring Regency gentleman attempting to ride his horse down a slippery hill on its hind legs. The man, dressed in fashionable attire and wearing a top hat, holds onto the horse's mane with one hand and brandishes a whip in the other, trying to maintain balance and control. Behind him, a man with a peg leg and eyepatch tumbles off his own horse, adding to the chaos of the scene. The horse, with its forelegs extended straight out, seems to be in a state of determined struggle as it slides down the hillside. The women in the background watch in amusement from the safety of their carriage, a gig, while a phaeton and a whisky barrel add to the sense of excitement and unpredictability. This caricature, created by Thomas Rowlandson after an illustration by Henry Bunbury for Geoffrey Gambado's "An Academy for Grown Horsemen and Annals of Horsemanship," published in London in 1809, showcases the spirit of adventure and the love for equestrian pursuits during the Regency era. The image also highlights the challenges and risks involved in such activities, as the rider's determined expression and the precarious position of the horse illustrate. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this engraving make it a captivating and humorous addition to any collection of Regency-era art or equestrian memorabilia.
