EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the early 20th century. This vintage image captures a moment of leisurely countryside activity - shooting partridges with dogs. The photograph is part of a series called "Old Sporting Prints Cigarette Cards" created by an unknown artist in collaboration with John Player & Sons in 1924. In this scene, we see a group of men dressed in traditional hunting attire, armed with shotguns and accompanied by their loyal gun dogs. They are engrossed in the art of partridge-shooting, showcasing the time-honored British tradition of game hunting. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and nostalgia to the composition, emphasizing the historical significance of this recreational pursuit. The creator drew inspiration from Samuel Howitt's works on sporting prints, paying homage to his influence on capturing wildlife and rural landscapes during the 18th and 19th centuries. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, it evokes feelings of tranquility amidst nature's beauty while highlighting man's connection with animals. This collectible cigarette card serves as both an artistic memento and a window into our cultural heritage. It reminds us of simpler times when smoking was intertwined with social activities like hunting expeditions. Let this remarkable print transport you to an era where men sought solace in nature's embrace while indulging their passion for sport and camaraderie.
