EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Hunting the Wren, at Christmas" takes us back to a festive scene in 19th century England. The image depicts a lively procession of danes and wren boys, adorned in traditional costumes, as they embark on a ceremonial hunt for the elusive wren bird. The origins of this unique Christmas tradition are shrouded in mystery and folklore. As the day breaks, these merry participants gather together to awaken the town with their joyful presence. With great anticipation and excitement, they set off through the streets, accompanied by an array of wildlife animals. The wren bush stands tall as a symbol of celebration and unity during this joyous occasion. It is believed that capturing the wren brings good fortune for the coming year. As we delve into this enchanting engraving, we are transported to a time when communities came together to revel in age-old customs and festivities. The intricate details captured by English School artists allow us to witness not only the vibrant colors adorning each participant's attire but also their infectious enthusiasm. This print serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and how traditions have evolved over time while still retaining their essence.
