EDITORS COMMENTS
A Humorous Moment in the Hunt: Mr. Popple's Unexpected Dismount (1898) This charming print captures the humorous side of a traditional fox hunt in the late 19th century. In the image, we find ourselves amidst a lively scene of horseback riders, hounds, and the elusive fox, all frozen in a moment of unexpected comedy. At the center of the action is none other than Mr. Popple, a weary huntsman who has met an untimely dismount from his horse. Despite the fall, Mr. Popple remains determined not to let his quarry escape. With a wry expression on his face and a glint of humor in his eyes, he reaches out to grab the horse's tail, using it as a makeshift rein to bring the animal to a halt. His tired and disheveled appearance adds to the amusing scene, as he clings to the horse with one hand while trying to keep his balance with the other. The print, created in 1898, offers a glimpse into the social history of fox hunting in England during the Victorian era. The sport was a popular pastime for the aristocracy and gentry, and this image showcases the camaraderie, humor, and determination that often accompanied these hunts. The print's historical significance is further emphasized by the inclusion of hounds in the scene, which were an integral part of the fox hunt. The hounds, with their eager expressions and tails wagging, add to the sense of excitement and anticipation in the moment. Overall, this print is a delightful reminder of the rich history and traditions of fox hunting in England, as well as the unexpected and humorous moments that could arise during these exhilarating pursuits.
