This engraving, titled "Sport in Ceylon, the First Snipe of the Season" takes us back to a bygone era in Sri Lanka. Created by artist William Ralston in 1895, it showcases the excitement and joy that accompanied the start of snipe hunting season. In this scene, we see a group of cheerful Cingalese hunters preparing for their first hunt. The early morning light casts a warm glow on their faces as they gather around a canoe, ready to embark on their adventure. One can almost feel their anticipation and enthusiasm as they discuss tactics and share stories. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; from the carefully crafted expressions on each face to the intricate depiction of nature surrounding them. As our eyes wander through the print, we spot tracks left behind by various animals and even catch sight of a mischievous jack nimrod lurking nearby. Ralston's artistry truly captures not only the physical act of hunting but also conveys an underlying sense of peace and harmony with nature. This engraving serves as a reminder that sport can bring people together, fostering feelings of camaraderie and shared happiness.
