EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from the 1890s, titled 'Mr. Popple Throws His Hat at the Fox: Much to the Master of Foxhounds' Disgust,' we witness an amusing yet etiquette-defying moment during a fox hunt. Dressed in a wet coat and jacket, Mr. Popple, a naive and perhaps foolish rider, sits atop his red horse. With a determined expression, he reaches back and hurls his hat towards the fleeing fox, seemingly oblivious to the disapproval of the Master of Foxhounds and the other riders. The Master of Foxhounds, dressed in the traditional hunting attire of the time, wears a disdainful expression as he turns away from the scene. The other riders in the background also appear to be shocked by Mr. Popple's unorthodox behavior, their faces expressing a mix of surprise, disgust, and amusement. This photograph, taken in 1898, offers a glimpse into the social history of fox hunting in the Victorian era. The sporting activity, which involved chasing a fox on horseback, was a popular pastime among the upper classes and was governed by strict protocols and etiquette. Mr. Popple's hat-throwing stunt would have been considered a breach of these rules and would have caused quite a stir among the hunting party. Despite the Master of Foxhounds' disapproval, Mr. Popple's actions are a reminder of the human tendency to act impulsively, even in the face of social convention. This photograph, with its rich historical context and intriguing narrative, invites us to ponder the complexities of human behavior and the enduring allure of the past.
