The Family Horse for Keen Sportsmen
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a delightful and humorous cartoon by the renowned British artist H.M. Bateman, published in 1930. In this charming illustration, Bateman captures the essence of the thrifty and enthusiastic sportsman, who, in search of an economical yet reliable mount for his family's hunting escapades, stumbles upon a horse with an unusually long back at the stable. The scene unfolds in a quintessentially English setting, with the stable doors flanked by saddles and riding equipment, and the stable hands in the background busily tending to other horses. The sportsman, dressed in tweed and holding a walking stick, is seen examining the horse's lengthy back with a thoughtful expression. His wife, clad in a long skirt and bonnet, stands beside him, her arms folded and a knowing smile on her face. Their young son, perched atop the horse, looks back at them with a mischievous grin, as if daring them to question his ability to ride the long-backed steed. The cartoon's title, "The Family Horse for Keen Sportsmen with Short Purses," adds to the humor, as the sportsman's frugality is emphasized. Bateman's masterful use of line and shading creates a sense of depth and texture, while his attention to detail in the stable environment and the characters' expressions adds to the overall charm and amusement of the scene. This timeless and humorous illustration continues to resonate with audiences today, offering a lighthearted glimpse into the world of horseback riding and the joys of finding a bargain.
