EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by Harrison William Weir, titled "Hitting it off, the Mid-Kent Staghounds" we are transported back to a thrilling moment in history. The scene depicts a group of enthusiastic hunters and their loyal hounds embarking on an exhilarating chase through the picturesque English countryside. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable, as he skillfully captures the energy and excitement of the hunt. The dogs eagerly lead the way, their powerful muscles poised for action, while their human companions ride alongside them with determination etched upon their faces. We can almost feel the wind rushing past us as we witness this heart-pounding pursuit. The lush green landscape stretches out before our eyes, providing a stunning backdrop for this timeless tradition. This print serves as a reminder of both the beauty and controversy surrounding bloodsports like hunting. It offers us a glimpse into a world that once thrived on adrenaline-fueled pursuits but also raises questions about our relationship with animals and nature. As we gaze at this enchanting artwork, let us appreciate its artistic brilliance while also contemplating our own role in preserving and protecting wildlife for future generations to enjoy.
