EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the thrilling moment of a mounted huntsman leaping over a fence in pursuit of a pack of hounds chasing a hare. The intensity and excitement are palpable as the hunter and his trusty steed navigate the obstacle with grace and determination. The image, titled "Mounted huntsman jumping a fence after a pack of hounds chasing a hare" is an exquisite copperplate engraving drawn and engraved by Samuel Howitt in 1796. It was featured in The Sporting Magazine, or Monthly Calendar of the Transactions of the Turf and the Chace, published by John Wheble in London during the Regency era. In this scene from Plate 4, aptly named "Hare in View" we witness not only an exhilarating chase but also glimpse into an age-old tradition deeply rooted in European culture. Hare hunting has long been regarded as both sport and spectacle, showcasing skilled horsemanship and teamwork between man and animal. As we marvel at this stunning artwork, we are reminded of the rich history that surrounds equestrian pursuits like hunting. From racehorses to ponies to shire horses, these magnificent creatures have played integral roles throughout human civilization. This print serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with wildlife animals and their place within our cultural heritage. It invites us to appreciate not only their beauty but also their significance within various sporting traditions across Europe.
