Regency Gentleman's Unfortunate Mishap: A Handcoloured Copperplate Engraving by Thomas Rowlandson This charming yet humorous handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Thomas Rowlandson after an illustration by Henry Bunbury, captures the essence of Regency-era horse riding and the occasional mishaps that came with it. The scene depicts a gentleman, dressed in the fashionable attire of the time, losing control of his horse as they pass a gig on the wrong side. The passengers in the gig look on in amusement as the gentleman's hat flies off and his hind leg is buckled in the stirrup. The gentleman's disheveled appearance, with a pipe clenched in his teeth and a jug of ale in his hand, adds to the lightheartedness of the scene. His horse, with a look of surprise on its face, seems to be trying to regain its composure. The signpost in the background indicates that the scene takes place at a crossroads, adding to the sense of adventure and spontaneity. The engraving is a delightful example of the sporting illustrations popular during the Regency period. It showcases the importance of horsemanship and riding skills, as well as the social aspects of riding and the camaraderie between riders. The gentleman's saddle, adorned with a whip and reins, and the use of a surcingle and strap, demonstrate the attention given to proper riding equipment. This engraving, taken from Geoffrey Gambado's "An Academy for Grown Horsemen and Annals of Horsemanship," published in London in 1809, is a testament to the joy and excitement of riding during the Regency era. It serves as a reminder that even the most experienced riders could have the occasional mishap, but that the important thing was to keep a sense of humor and enjoy the ride.
