EDITORS COMMENTS
This pair of silhouette prints by H.L. Oakley depicts the thrilling scenes of a traditional hunt, transporting us back in time to a bygone era. In the first image, we witness the huntsmen and hounds gathering at a quaint village pub, their horses tethered outside, as they prepare for the day's pursuit. The camaraderie and excitement are palpable as they assemble, ready to embark on their leisurely pastime. The second silhouette reveals the huntsmen and their mounts in full gallop across the rolling countryside, their hounds hot on the trail of the elusive fox. The riders expertly navigate their horses over fences, their determination and skill on display as they chase their quarry through the winter landscape. The intricate details of the silhouettes show the huntsmen in their distinctive red coats and hunting attire, their faces focused and determined, while the hounds follow closely behind, their ears pricked and eyes fixed on the scent. These beautiful silhouettes by H.L. Oakley offer a fascinating glimpse into the history of hunting as a popular pastime and leisure activity, and serve as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and traditions that continue to shape our world today. The prints, which date back to the 1950s, are a testament to the enduring appeal of this ancient pursuit and the thrill of the chase, making them a must-have for any art or history enthusiast.
