EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the picturesque countryside of Surrey, Great Britain in 1824. The vibrant colors of this lithograph bring to life a scene that was once enjoyed by the bourgeoisie and nobility of British society. Fox hunting was not only a popular pastime but also a symbol of status and privilege during this era. The unknown artist skillfully captures the essence of this traditional English sport, showcasing hunters on horseback accompanied by their loyal hounds. The image exudes an air of elegance as riders donning exquisite attire navigate through the lush green landscape with their walking sticks or canes in hand. As we delve into this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that fox hunting served as more than just a recreational activity; it represented camaraderie amongst peers and provided an escape from daily routines for those who could afford such leisure pursuits. This lithograph transports us to a time when spare moments were spent amidst nature's beauty, chasing after elusive prey while basking in the company of fellow enthusiasts. It serves as a reminder of how our ancestors found solace and joy in simple pleasures like these. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we are fortunate enough to witness this glimpse into 19th-century England's cultural tapestry – where man, dog, and nature harmoniously converged under the banner of fox hunting.
