EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print titled "Title page for Annalia Dubrensia: Upon the Yeerely celebration of Mr. Robert Dovers Olimpick Games upon Cotswold Hills, 1636" takes us back in time to a vibrant rural fair that was held annually in the 17th century. The image showcases various traditional games and contests that were part of this lively event. In the foreground, we see villagers engaging in fencing matches, displaying their skill and agility with swords. Further into the scene, participants can be seen jousting on horseback, adding an element of medieval charm to the festivities. The atmosphere is filled with excitement as people gather around to witness these thrilling displays of talent and bravery. The print also captures other elements of village life during this annual celebration. Hare coursing, a popular pastime at the time, is depicted as well. This tradition brought together both locals and visitors who eagerly watched greyhounds chase after hares across open fields. The title page serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and how communities came together through play and competition centuries ago. It transports us to a bygone era where conflicts were settled not through violence but through friendly rivalry on the field. This remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate the historical significance of such events while marveling at their enduring appeal throughout generations.
