This print captures a momentous event in the history of hunting - the opening meet of the Quorn Hunt at Kirby Gate. Taken on 10 November 1924, this monochrome image transports us back to a bygone era between the wars, where tradition and elegance reigned supreme. In the foreground stands an imposing huntsman, exuding authority and confidence as he commands his pack of hounds. The bond between man and animal is palpable in this snapshot, showcasing their mutual trust and shared purpose. The huntsman's attire reflects both practicality and style - a tailored jacket adorned with brass buttons, paired with sturdy riding boots that speak volumes about his dedication to this noble pursuit. The setting itself is picturesque; rolling hills stretching into the distance create a breathtaking backdrop for this gathering of passionate hunters. As we gaze upon this photograph from Central News' archives, we are transported to an idyllic countryside scene in 1920s Europe. Preserved by TopFoto, this piece of Europeana photography serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage.
