EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a traditional Victorian hunting scene, with the Quorn Hunt's pack of hounds and their riders elegantly dressed in hunting attire. Established in 1696, the Quorn Hunt, also known as the Quorn, is renowned as one of the oldest and most famous fox hunting packs in the United Kingdom. The Quorn's country primarily lies in Leicestershire, with smaller areas in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire. The image, taken in the year 1900, showcases the upper class pastime of hunting, with the huntsmen on horseback, dressed in their distinctive red coats, black and white check trousers, and tall black boots. The hounds, an essential part of the hunt, are seen in their natural element, eagerly following the scent of the fox. The Quorn Hunt holds a rich history and tradition, reflecting a bygone era of British aristocracy and rural life.
