Cruelty Hounds Jackets Meet 1902
23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history from 1902 at "The Meet" of a hunting expedition. The image showcases the traditional attire of red jackets worn by hunters as they gather with their horses and hounds before embarking on the chase. The scene exudes an air of excitement and anticipation, as both man and beast prepare for the thrill of the hunt.
Despite its historical significance, this image also raises questions about animal cruelty and ethical considerations surrounding fox hunting. While some may view it as a noble tradition steeped in history, others see it as a cruel sport that exploits animals for entertainment.
The juxtaposition of elegance and brutality is evident in this photograph, highlighting the complexities of human-animal relationships throughout time. It serves as a reminder of our evolving attitudes towards wildlife conservation and ethical treatment of animals.
As we reflect on this snapshot from over a century ago, we are reminded that history is not just about dates and events but also about examining our past actions through a modern lens. This print invites us to contemplate our relationship with nature and how it has evolved since the days when hunting expeditions like this were commonplace.
