EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Sporting man with gun, gaiters and hound surprised by his guests" captures a comical scene of unexpected visitors interrupting the peaceful hunting expedition of a distinguished gentleman. Illustrated by John Leech in 1865, this handcoloured steel engraving depicts Facey Romford, an eccentric sporting man, being dispossessed of his inheritance by young Gilroy and his governess. In the image, we see Romford's bewildered expression as he stands alongside his loyal hound while facing the audacious guests who have invaded his home. The mistress of the house proudly proclaims her authority over the premises, introducing herself as she presents Gilroy as the rightful heir to Romford's estate. This Victorian-era caricature showcases Leech's talent for capturing humor through exaggerated facial expressions and intricate details. From Romford's distinctive muttonchop whiskers to the mischievous grin on Gilroy's face, every element adds to the whimsical nature of this illustration. The presence of various dogs in this artwork highlights its connection to bloodsports and state hunting during that time period. Whether it is the deerhound or basset hounds depicted in Les Chiens Bassets style or even a collie dog guarding its master’s property – these animals play an integral role in adding liveliness to this scene. Overall, this print offers a glimpse into both Victorian society and Leech's artistic prowess as it combines elements of satire with delightful imagery.
