EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Getting him into Training," by Hablot Knight Browne (Phiz), captures the essence of 19th-century sporting culture with humor and wit. The illustration is part of a series called Racing and Chasing, the Road, the River, and the Hunt, which was published in Fifty Drawings by Phiz in 1877 or earlier.
In this particular scene, we see a comical depiction of a man being put through rigorous training for some sort of sport or competition. The exaggerated expressions on the faces of both the trainer and trainee add an element of lightheartedness to the image. Phiz's attention to detail and skillful use of line work bring this humorous moment to life.
The setting appears to be rural England, with rolling hills in the background suggesting a countryside landscape. This scene not only showcases Phiz's talent as an engraver but also provides insight into the leisure activities enjoyed by people during that time period.
Overall, "Getting him into Training" is a delightful representation of 19th-century sports culture that continues to entertain viewers with its clever composition and playful narrative.
