EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "A Melee -- Men and Hounds on a Wild Boar Hunt in Ceylon (Sri Lanka), 1854," transports us back in time to an era of adventure and excitement. The image showcases a thrilling moment during a wild boar hunt in the lush greenery of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka. A large group of men, dressed in colorful clothing and armed with firearms, are seen engulfed in a melee, surrounded by eager hounds. The men, with determined expressions on their faces, are in the midst of the chase, their weapons at the ready. The hounds, with their noses to the ground, are hot on the trail of the elusive wild boar. The scene is set in a picturesque meadow, with tall grasses swaying gently in the breeze and the sun casting dappled light through the trees. The use of firearms, such as rifles and shotguns, was a common practice during the 1850s for hunting wild boar in Ceylon. The island's rich forests provided an abundant supply of game, making it a popular destination for hunters from around the world. This photograph is a testament to the rich hunting traditions of Sri Lanka and the close relationship between man and hound. It also provides a glimpse into the past, offering us a window into a time when life moved at a slower pace and the thrill of the hunt was a cherished experience. The image is a stunning example of the beauty and excitement of wild boar hunting in Ceylon during the 1850s.
