EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures a brutal yet historical sport known as bear baiting, which was popular in the late 16th century. In this scene, dogs are set on a bear while two men armed with pikes stand ready to protect the sportsmen in case the bear becomes aggressive.
The intensity of the moment is palpable as the dogs lunge towards the powerful bear, their primal instincts driving them forward. The men with pikes stand stoically, prepared to intervene if necessary to ensure the safety of those participating in this dangerous and cruel spectacle.
This image offers a glimpse into a dark chapter of history when such barbaric forms of entertainment were considered acceptable. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in our treatment of animals and our understanding of what constitutes ethical sporting practices.
Despite its disturbing subject matter, this print is undeniably compelling, drawing viewers in with its raw emotion and stark depiction of a bygone era. It serves as both a testament to our past transgressions and a call to reflect on how far we have evolved as a society since these cruel practices were commonplace.
