EDITORS COMMENTS
Field Sports: A Double Shot, late 18th-early 19th century captures a humorous incident in rural life. This hand-coloured engraving showcases the countryside setting where men engage in the age-old tradition of shooting birds with their shotguns. In this comical scene, we witness a man attempting to take down two birds simultaneously. With his weapon raised and eyes focused, he takes aim at his feathered targets. However, an unexpected twist unfolds as both shots miss their mark and instead collide mid-air! The artist skillfully depicts the moment of impact, freezing it forever on paper for our amusement. The vibrant colours bring life to this rustic tableau, enhancing the sense of action and adding depth to the scenery. The print transports us back to a time when field sports were not only a means of sustenance but also served as entertainment for those living in rural communities. Although created by an unknown artist from the late 18th or early 19th century, this artwork continues to evoke laughter and appreciation for its clever depiction of an accidental double shot gone awry. It serves as a reminder that even in serious pursuits like hunting and warfare, moments of lightheartedness can arise unexpectedly. This print is part of The Print Collector's collection and offers us a glimpse into historical pastimes while showcasing artistic talent from centuries ago.
