EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Mile from Home (engraving)" takes us back in time to a rural scene filled with charm and innocence. The image, created by the talented artist Eduard Hildebrandt in 1848, showcases a picturesque countryside setting where children and horses coexist harmoniously. The engraving depicts a group of children riding on horseback, accompanied by their loyal equine companions. As they traverse through the vast landscape, one can sense their excitement and adventure as they venture further away from home. The idyllic scenery captures the essence of simplicity and freedom that was once prevalent in rural communities. Horses have always been an integral part of human civilization, serving as both means of transportation and faithful companions. In this artwork, they symbolize not only reliable modes of travel but also represent our connection to nature and wildlife. The presence of farm animals adds another layer to this enchanting composition. Livestock peacefully graze nearby while these young explorers embark on their journey—a reminder of the symbiotic relationship between humans and animals within agrarian societies. Through this timeless piece, Bridgeman Images invites us to reflect upon our own childhood memories—those moments when we ventured beyond familiar territory with boundless curiosity. It serves as a gentle reminder that even though we may wander far from home at times, there will always be something magical about returning to our roots.
