EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Juliusz Fortunat Kossak, titled "Coursing in Poland" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the traditional sport of hare coursing. The print showcases a group of Polish hunters on horseback, accompanied by their loyal dogs, as they engage in this exhilarating pursuit. The scene is set amidst the picturesque landscape of Poland, with its rolling hills and lush greenery. The hunters are dressed in traditional attire, reflecting their deep-rooted connection to their homeland's rich cultural heritage. Their horses gallop gracefully across the terrain while the dogs eagerly chase after a hare that has been caught mid-flight. Kossak's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. From the intricate patterns on the hunters' garments to the intense expressions on both man and beast alike, he captures not only the physicality but also the spirit of this age-old tradition. "Coursing in Poland" serves as a testament to Europe's diverse sporting traditions and highlights Poland's unique contribution to it. It reminds us of our shared history within an ever-evolving European Union context. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time and invited to appreciate both nature's beauty and mankind's enduring passion for adventure.
