EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the late 19th century, captures the thrill and excitement of rural life as Mr. Popple skillfully navigates his horse, Radical, over a seemingly insurmountable obstacle. The scene unfolds in a lush, green field, nestled in the heart of the countryside. Mr. Popple, dressed in the traditional attire of a fox chase rider, leans forward in determination as Radical's hooves leave the ground, preparing to clear the five-barred gate. However, upon closer inspection, it becomes apparent that this jump is not as impressive as it seems. The gate lies flat on the ground, having been intentionally laid down for the purpose of this daring stunt. This unconventional approach to gate jumping was likely a popular pastime among the social elite of the time, who sought to display their horsemanship skills in creative and daring ways. The historical significance of this photograph lies not only in the unique jumping technique but also in the social context of the era. Fox chases were a popular pastime for the landed gentry, and the ability to ride and jump well was a mark of status and refinement. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the countryside was a playground for the wealthy and the pursuit of the fox was a cherished tradition. Despite the deceptive nature of the gate jump, the spirit of competition and camaraderie is palpable in this photograph. Radical, with his ears pricked and eyes focused on the task at hand, and Mr. Popple, with his confident and determined expression, make for an unforgettable duo. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of the countryside and the thrill of the chase.
