EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of the Crawley & Horsham Opening Meet at Knepp Castle on 4th November 1933. The George Garland Collection, housed in the West Sussex Record Office, has preserved this remarkable snapshot of history for all to admire. In this idyllic countryside setting, we witness a scene filled with nostalgia and charm. A pack of hounds eagerly gather around their handlers as they prepare for an exhilarating day of hunting. The rural landscape provides a picturesque backdrop, showcasing the beauty of nature that surrounded these passionate hunters. Amidst this lively atmosphere, children and ladies can be seen enjoying the festivities. Their presence adds an element of joy and innocence to the occasion as they observe with wide-eyed wonderment. It is heartwarming to see generations coming together to partake in such traditional pursuits. The image evokes a sense of tranquility as well; perhaps it captures a moment just before the hunt begins when everyone pauses for reflection or feeds their loyal companions. The connection between man and beast is palpable here - a testament to our enduring bond with animals. As we gaze upon this extraordinary photograph from the 1930s, we are transported back in time - reminded of simpler days when life was intertwined with nature's rhythms. This piece serves as both a visual feast and historical artifact, allowing us to appreciate our shared heritage while marveling at its timeless beauty.
