EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Portrait of Man in Hunting Garb" takes us back to the mid-19th century, immersing us in a world of rugged charm and rural life. Created by renowned artist Horatio Ross, this photograph captures the essence of a Victorian gentleman dressed for his favorite pastime - hunting. The bearded man stands tall and proud, donning traditional hunting attire that speaks volumes about his passion for blood sports. Dressed in rustic clothing with plus fours, he exudes an air of sophistication mixed with a touch of wildness. His facial hair adds to his rugged appeal, reflecting the fashion trends prevalent during that era. With a rifle firmly grasped in hand, this hunter embodies both strength and skill. The weapon itself becomes an extension of his identity as he poses against a countryside backdrop. This image transports us to simpler times when men sought solace in nature's embrace while engaging in their beloved sport. Preserved through salted paper printing techniques, this artwork showcases Ross's mastery behind the lens. It now resides within the prestigious walls of The Metropolitan Museum of Art – an institution dedicated to preserving heritage art from various periods. As we gaze upon this portrait today, we are reminded not only of our rich history but also how human passions endure across centuries. Ross has immortalized this nameless hunter forever; allowing us to appreciate both the artistry behind photography and the timeless allure of man's connection with nature and weaponry.
