EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a group of men and women in India after a successful day hunting wild boar in April 1917. The expressions on their faces tell the story of their triumph, as they proudly pose with the dead boars they have bagged.
The British colonial history is evident in this image, showcasing a popular sport among expatriates living abroad during the early 20th century. The men are dressed in traditional hunting attire, while the women exude an air of sophistication and adventure.
It's fascinating to see how different societal norms were back then, with both men and women participating in such a rugged and physically demanding activity. This photograph serves as a window into the past, offering us a glimpse into the lives of those who lived during this time period.
The lush Indian landscape provides a stunning backdrop for this group portrait, adding to the overall charm and allure of the scene. It's clear that these individuals shared not only a passion for hunting but also a camaraderie that transcends time.
Overall, this print is not just a visual representation of a successful hunt but also a snapshot of history that reminds us of our connection to the past.
