"The Gamekeeper: Guardians of the Countryside" In the picturesque countryside of Cornwall, around 1890, a young poacher finds himself caught in the act by a vigilant gamekeeper. With his trusted companions - a loyal English Springer Spaniel, an intelligent Labrador Retriever, and a fearless terrier - this group of adults ensures that no trespassers go unnoticed. At Polawyn Lodge in Trelowarren, Mawgan in Meneage, Cornwall, their duty is to protect the land from those who seek to exploit its wildlife. In another scene captured by an unknown artist, we witness a farmer with a fox as evidence of their commitment to preserving nature's delicate balance. The Prince of Wales himself joins in on pheasant-shooting at Sandringham in 1893. This event showcases how even royalty appreciates and participates in traditional hunting practices under the watchful eye of skilled gamekeepers. However, not all encounters end peacefully. A chilling lithograph depicts two poachers burying a gamekeeper alive after an intense struggle. It serves as a reminder that these brave individuals face danger while defending what they hold dear. An illustration from "An Alphabet" published by William Heinemann in 1898 portrays 'K' for Keeper - highlighting their integral role within society. Their dedication extends beyond borders; English tourists are seen hunting alongside them amidst Scotland's breathtaking highlands. Amidst it all stands The Gamekeeper's Cottage –a humble abode where these guardians find solace after long days spent protecting nature's treasures. An engraving captures both sides of this age-old conflict between poacher and protector – each driven by different motives but bound together through shared landscapes. Dating back to the 1850s, an oil painting immortalizes The Gamekeeper as he carries out his duties with unwavering determination and love for his surroundings. These snapshots provide glimpses into the lives of those who dedicate themselves to safeguarding the countryside.
