EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Linda Steward, we are transported back to a Victorian fox hunt, witnessing the gruesome aftermath of the kill. The image reveals a chilling scene where hounds tear pieces from the lifeless corpse while a jubilant huntsman dances a jig with the unfortunate fox's brush. Amidst this macabre spectacle, our attention is drawn to a small boy who nonchalantly enjoys a slice of something, seemingly unfazed by the brutality unfolding before him. A dog watches on hopefully, perhaps anticipating some scraps from the boy's snack. This juxtaposition of innocence and savagery encapsulates both the humor and horror associated with such blood sports in days gone by. The vibrant colors bring to life this satirical portrayal of an event that was once celebrated as an exciting outdoor activity in rural England. The image also offers insights into cultural practices and traditions prevalent during Victorian times. It highlights how hunting played an integral role in British culture, showcasing elements like traditional clothing and horseback riding as recreational pursuits for those involved. Linda Steward's engraved illustration masterfully captures not only the motion and excitement surrounding fox hunting but also raises questions about animal welfare and ethics within this controversial practice. Through her artistry, she invites us to reflect upon our past while challenging us to consider our present attitudes towards animals and their treatment in sport.
