EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph captures the essence of Tudor falconry in the mid-19th century. In this scene, a woman elegantly rides side-saddle with her gloved hand extended, showcasing a majestic falcon perched upon it. The image transports us back to a time when hunting was not only a sport but also an art form. The woman's attire reflects the fashion of the era, with her elaborate dress and intricate details that epitomize Elizabethan style. Her presence exudes confidence and grace as she engages in this traditional English pastime. Surrounded by lush countryside, we witness the harmonious connection between humans and animals during this exhilarating pursuit. The horse beneath her is poised and strong, ready to gallop at any moment while maintaining composure under its rider's expert control. Falconry was not solely reserved for men; women were equally skilled participants in this noble activity. This print challenges gender norms of its time by presenting a capable sportswoman who commands respect through her expertise in hawking. As we admire this artwork from Ann Ronan Pictures' collection, we are reminded of England's rich heritage and its enduring love affair with country sports. It serves as both an educational tool and an aesthetic delight for those fascinated by history, wildlife, or simply appreciative of fine artistry captured within one frame.
