EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Sketches at the Bisley Rifle Meeting" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into an exciting event. The image showcases a bustling scene filled with tents, cups, sketches, and executive officers. It captures the essence of a shooting competition in all its glory. In the foreground, we see competitors eagerly waiting their turn while others are engrossed in reading orders or discussing strategies. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as participants prepare for their moment on the firing line. The artist skillfully presents a general view of the camp, where rows of tents stretch out into the distance. A refreshment pavilion stands nearby, providing much-needed respite for those seeking a break from intense competition. In another section of the camp lies the prize tent, adorned with banners and trophies that serve as motivation for these dedicated marksmen. Amongst this sea of activity are members of Queen's Men - distinguished individuals who have been presented with honors for their exceptional skills in previous tournaments. Their presence adds prestige to this championship event. This engraving was originally published in The Graphic on July 26th, 1890 - an influential illustrated newspaper known for its high-quality images and informative content. Preserved within private collections over time, it now finds itself showcased by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection. Through this print, we are transported back to an era when marksmanship competitions were highly regarded events that brought together skilled shooters
