Fox Hunters in National Capital Horse Show, 1911
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph capturing the essence of an elite equestrian event during the early 20th century. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, showcases a group of determined fox hunters gathered at The National Capital Horse Show in Washington D.C. The photograph is a testament to the enduring popularity of fox hunting as a sport and pastime among the affluent classes of America during this era. The hunters, dressed in traditional red coats and tall boots, are seen mounting their horses, ready to embark on the chase. The horses, with their sleek coats and obedient demeanor, exude a sense of power and agility. The scene is set against an outdoor backdrop, with the open sky and lush greenery providing a picturesque contrast to the rugged terrain and determined riders. The photograph is a snapshot of a bygone era, where the pursuit of the fox was not only a sport but also a symbol of status and wealth. The photograph was taken by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing of Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio. The studio, which was based in Washington D.C., was known for its high-quality glass negatives and its ability to capture the spirit of the times. The photograph is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection at the Library of Congress, providing a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the rich history of equestrian sports in America. The photograph is a fascinating study of the intersection of nature, tradition, and the human spirit. It is a reminder of a time when the pursuit of the fox was a cherished pastime, and the horse was the mode of transportation for the elite. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of the equestrian lifestyle and the thrill of the chase.
