EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Coursing Meeting at Hampton Park" takes us back to a bygone era of excitement and elegance. Created by the talented artist Frederick John Skill in 1860, this print captures a thrilling moment during a coursing meeting at Hampton Park. In this scene, we are transported to the heart of London's bustling hunting culture. The image showcases a group of greyhounds eagerly chasing after their prey with incredible speed and agility. The atmosphere is electric as spectators gather around the park, witnessing this exhilarating spectacle unfold before their eyes. Skill's attention to detail is remarkable; every line and stroke brings life to each figure present in the composition. From the graceful movements of the greyhounds to the animated expressions on people's faces, he masterfully conveys both action and emotion. This engraving originally appeared in The Illustrated London News, an esteemed publication that aimed to bring visual storytelling into people's homes. Its inclusion in private collections speaks volumes about its artistic merit and historical significance. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection today, we can't help but be transported back in time – imagining ourselves amidst the thrill of that coursing meeting at Hampton Park over 150 years ago.
