EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Partridge-Netting, (1924)" takes us back to a bygone era of British countryside pursuits. Created by an unknown artist, this image showcases the age-old practice of partridge hunting using nets and dogs. Part of a series of 25 Old Sporting Prints Cigarette Cards produced by John Player & Sons in 1924, it pays homage to the renowned artist Samuel Howitt. Intriguingly monochrome, the photograph captures a group of men engaged in their noble pursuit. Clad in traditional hunting attire, they exude an air of sophistication and expertise. With their loyal canine companions at their side, these hunters demonstrate both skill and camaraderie as they prepare to capture partridges. The scene is set amidst the picturesque British countryside which serves as a stunning backdrop for this timeless activity. The tranquility is palpable as nature's beauty intertwines with man's desire for sport. As we gaze upon this collectible cigarette card print, we are transported back to the roaring twenties when smoking was not only fashionable but also accompanied moments of leisure and reflection. This particular piece offers a unique glimpse into history while celebrating our connection with wildlife and tradition. With its rich historical context and artistic allure, "Partridge-Netting" stands as a testament to human ingenuity and our enduring fascination with nature's wonders.
