1820 Covers Hounds Hunt Huntsmen Leicestershire Meet Return
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 image, titled "The Leicestershire Coverts: Huntsmen Returning from the Hunt with their Prize," dates back to the year 1820 and offers a fascinating glimpse into the social scenes of country life during the early 19th century. The photograph depicts a group of huntsmen, dressed in their distinctive red coats and tall hats, making their way back from a successful fox hunt. The huntsmen, mounted on their horses, are accompanied by their hounds, their faces etched with a mix of exhaustion and elation, having just completed the chase. The red coats of the huntsmen and their hounds contrast sharply with the lush green landscape of the coverts, adding a vibrant pop of color to the otherwise monochromatic scene. The huntsmen's horses, too, reflect the intensity of the hunt, their coats slicked with sweat and their breaths coming in heavy gasps. The scene is completed by the men in the background, who appear to be helping to secure the fox, their expressions a testament to the excitement and camaraderie that comes with being a part of such a traditional pursuit. Fox hunting was a popular pastime among the aristocracy and gentry of the time, and this photograph captures the essence of the sport - the thrill of the chase, the camaraderie of the hunt, and the beauty of the countryside. It is a window into a bygone era, a time when the pursuit of the fox was not just a sport, but a social event that brought together men of all ages and backgrounds in a shared experience.
