EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Plover Shooting" by Francis Barlow takes us back in time to the 17th century, where hunting was not only a sport but also an art form. The image showcases a spaniel and its master engaging in the age-old tradition of plover shooting. The scene is beautifully composed, with the spaniel eagerly pointing towards the sky as if alerting his companion to the presence of game birds overhead. The tension in their bodies is palpable, capturing the anticipation and excitement that comes with this exhilarating pursuit. Barlow's attention to detail is remarkable; every feather on the crane flying above can be seen vividly against a backdrop of lush greenery. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth and realism to this snapshot frozen in time. As we admire this piece from Mark Fiennes' private collection, it transports us into a world where man and dog worked together harmoniously for survival. It serves as a reminder of our deep connection with nature and how these ancient traditions have shaped our history. This photograph print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both Barlow's artistic talent and Fiennes' dedication to preserving historical artworks. It stands as a testament to our enduring fascination with capturing moments of beauty through visual mediums throughout centuries past.
