Coursing - Slipping the Greyhounds, 1887

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the 19th century in Britain. This engraving from The Illustrated London News, created by an unknown artist but attributed to Stephen T Dadd, captures a moment of excitement and anticipation during a blood sport known as hare coursing. In this scene, a group of men dressed in Victorian attire gather together to witness the release of greyhounds for the chase. A man wearing a deerstalker hat stands at the center, holding onto the leash tightly while preparing to let go. The crowd eagerly watches as he releases these magnificent dogs with incredible speed and agility. The print not only showcases the thrill of this popular sport but also raises questions about cruelty towards animals. As we observe this historical snapshot, it serves as both a metaphorical representation and documentation of how society viewed such activities during that era. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and intensity to the image, emphasizing every detail from the rider on horseback in motion to spectators engrossed in their observation. It's evident that "Coursing: Slipping the Greyhounds" encapsulates an important aspect of British culture at that time. This remarkable print allows us to step into history and experience firsthand how people entertained themselves centuries ago while shedding light on ethical considerations surrounding animal sports today.
