This print from The Northcliffe Collection takes us back to the picturesque village of Rottingdean near Brighton in 1953. It captures a momentous gathering of the Southdown Foxhounds during their meet, where hunting enthusiasts and locals alike would come together for an exhilarating day out in the countryside. The image exudes a sense of nostalgia, transporting us to a bygone era when rural traditions were deeply cherished. The fifties aesthetic is evident through the timeless attire and hairstyles worn by those present, reminding us of simpler times filled with grace and elegance. Amongst this lively group stands Jimmy Edwards, a notable figure who adds an air of distinction to the scene. His presence symbolizes both his love for foxhunting and his connection to this tight-knit community.
