EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era, showcasing "The Month of August" from an exquisite almanac of twelve sports. Created in 1898 by William Heinemann and featuring words by Rudyard Kipling, this colour lithograph transports us back to a time when horse-drawn carriages were the epitome of elegance and luxury. In this particular scene, we witness the artistry and precision involved in carriage driving. The coach glides effortlessly through picturesque countryside, with its sleek design and impeccable harnesses reflecting the attention to detail that was characteristic of this sport. The horses themselves exude strength and grace as they pull the carriage along. As we delve deeper into the image, we notice a bugler perched on top of the coach, adding a touch of grandeur to this already majestic scene. His bugle poised at his lips suggests that he is announcing their arrival or perhaps signaling an upcoming event. The lush greenery surrounding them hints at summertime; it's easy to imagine warm rays of sun filtering through leaves overhead. This idyllic setting showcases not only nature's beauty but also highlights how coaching provided an opportunity for leisurely outings amidst stunning landscapes. "The Month of August" serves as a reminder that transportation has evolved over time but cannot diminish our fascination with these magnificent creatures or erase our admiration for those who skillfully guided them through history's pages.
