EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the notorious figure of Dick Turpin, one of the most famous highwaymen in English history, riding his beloved horse Black Bess through the English countryside. The photograph, taken circa 1735, shows Turpin in his distinctive attire, including a tricorn hat and a long, flowing coat. The image is believed to have been taken during the height of Turpin's criminal career, which saw him terrorize the roads of England and rob travelers with his band of accomplices. Turpin's legend began in the early 1730s when he was a horse thief operating in the Essex area. He soon graduated to highway robbery, and his daring escapes and flamboyant personality made him a folk hero among the common people. He was said to have robbed over 200 people during his career, and his victims included nobility and gentry. Despite the fear he instilled in the populace, Turpin was also known for his generosity. He reportedly gave money to the poor and helped those in need. His exploits were immortalized in ballads and songs, and he became a symbol of resistance against the oppressive authorities. The image of Turpin and Black Bess has become an iconic representation of the romanticized image of the highwayman in English folklore. The photograph captures the wild spirit of the era, with the open road stretching out before Turpin and the vast, untamed landscape of rural England behind him. The image is a testament to the enduring allure of the highwayman myth, and a reminder of the complex and often contradictory nature of the figures who shaped the history of England.
