EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant coloured print captures a scene of ferreting for rabbits in the picturesque countryside. Taken by an English photographer in the early 20th century, this image showcases a traditional hunting practice that was popular during that time. The private collection where this photo resides adds to its historical significance. In the foreground, we see a group of men engaged in their pursuit, armed with guns and accompanied by well-trained dogs. They are meticulously searching for rabbit burrows among the lush greenery and towering trees that surround them. The tranquility of rural life is palpable as they navigate through nature's beauty. The composition exudes a sense of camaraderie and adventure, highlighting not only the act of hunting but also the bond between man and animal. Ferrets play a crucial role in flushing out rabbits from their hiding places, making them indispensable companions on these expeditions. This snapshot provides us with insight into British culture at that time when such activities were deeply ingrained in daily life. It serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and our connection with nature. Displayed within this postcard-like frame, it invites viewers to step back into history and appreciate how scientific methods were employed even in leisurely pursuits like ferreting for rabbits. This image truly encapsulates the charm of early 20th-century Britain while celebrating its natural heritage.
