EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and nostalgic print titled "Old time partridge shooting" takes us back to a bygone era of rural pursuits in England. Created by George Denholm Armour, this colour lithograph captures the essence of traditional game hunting with its rich hues and intricate details. The scene depicts a group of English gentlemen engaged in partridge shooting, a popular sport during that time. Clad in their old-fashioned attire, they navigate through the covert with rifles in hand and accompanied by well-trained dogs. The picturesque countryside serves as the backdrop for this thrilling pursuit. The print is an illustration from E. D. Cuming's book "Covert and Field Sport" published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1913. It offers us a glimpse into the sporting culture prevalent at that time, showcasing not only the skillful marksmanship but also the camaraderie shared among participants. As we admire this artwork, we are transported to an era when such activities were cherished traditions passed down through generations. It reminds us of the deep connection between man and nature, where sportsmanship met wildlife conservation. This print is not just about hunting; it encapsulates history, tradition, and our ever-evolving relationship with nature. Its vivid colors bring life to every detail - from birds taking flight to dogs eagerly anticipating their master's command. A true testament to both artistic talent and cultural significance, this piece invites us to appreciate our heritage while reflecting on how far we have come as stewards of our environment.
