EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the idyllic countryside of Cheshire, England in 1936, as depicted in this photographic print of Peckforton Wood. The scene unfolds before us as a lively foxhunt takes place in full swing, with riders and hounds in pursuit of their quarry through the picturesque woodland. The Cheshire Hunt, a traditional foxhound pack based in the North West of England, can be seen making their way through the dense foliage, their red coats and helmets contrasting against the vibrant autumnal hues of the trees. The hounds, with their keen noses and boundless energy, lead the charge, their barks echoing through the forest. The landscape is dotted with hedges and trees, providing a natural barrier and cover for the fox, as well as adding to the rugged charm of the rural setting. The rolling hills and open fields of Peckforton Wood stretch out in every direction, offering a breathtaking backdrop to this quintessentially British sporting scene. Foxhunting, a time-honored tradition in the United Kingdom, has been a part of the country's history for centuries. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a simpler time when the pursuit of the fox was a cherished pastime for the aristocracy and common folk alike. Whether you're an avid historian, a lover of the great outdoors, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of traditional British scenes, this photograph of Peckforton Wood with a hunt in progress is sure to captivate and inspire you. A true treasure for any collection, this print is a must-have for anyone seeking to add a touch of history and charm to their home or office.
