EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from Hermann Schlegel and A.H. Verster's Traite de Fauconnerie, published between 1844 and 1853. The plate showcases an array of falconry equipment, intricately arranged to highlight the essential tools used in the ancient art of falconry. At the heart of the scene lies a majestic falcon, a bird of prey from the Falconidae family, perched on a leather-covered perch. The falcon's keen eyes are fixed on the viewer, a testament to its unwavering focus and hunting instincts. The falcon is adorned with a hood, a protective covering used to shield its eyes from bright sunlight or to calm the bird during transport or training. Surrounding the falcon, various accessories are meticulously displayed. Leather gloves, essential for handling the bird, are shown in various stages of wear, reflecting their frequent use. A lure, a device used to attract prey, is depicted in the lower left corner. A falconer's jesses, or leather straps, are also visible, securing the bird to the falconer's wrist during flight. The intricate details of the equipment in this illustration offer a glimpse into the rich history of falconry, a hobby that has captivated humans for centuries. The sauropsida, a group of reptiles and birds, is represented here by the falcon and its accessories, showcasing the deep connection between humans and these magnificent birds of prey. This plate, taken from Hermann Schlegel and A.H. Verster's Traite de Fauconnerie, is a testament to the enduring allure of falconry and the deep respect and admiration humans have for the birds of prey. It is a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of falconry and the essential role that equipment plays in this ancient and noble pursuit.
