EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by John Topham, we are transported back to the year 1934 in Green St Green, Kent. The image showcases a thrilling moment as the Royal Artillery (RA) drag hunt is about to commence. The air is filled with anticipation as horsemen on their majestic steeds gather together, ready for an exhilarating chase. The scene exudes elegance and tradition, capturing a glimpse of life between the wars. A pack of bloodhounds stands at attention, their keen senses heightened in anticipation of the pursuit ahead. These noble creatures have been trained for this very purpose - to track down and follow the scent trail left behind by a "drag" or artificial lure. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that hunting was not merely a sport but also an integral part of British culture during this era. The riders' attire reflects both practicality and style; they don tailored jackets and sturdy boots while sitting tall atop their magnificent horses. Topham's expert use of monochrome photography adds depth and texture to the composition, emphasizing every detail from the intricate patterns on horse blankets to wrinkles etched onto weathered faces. This print serves as a visual testament to history - reminding us of days gone by when man and beast worked together harmoniously in pursuit of adventure amidst picturesque landscapes like Green St Green in Kent.
