EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Sensational Run of the Bicester Hounds, Death of Lady Cheshams Mare in the Village of Chesterton" takes us back to a bygone era. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures a dramatic moment during a hunt. In this scene, we find ourselves immersed in the picturesque village of Chesterton as chaos unfolds. The Bicester Hounds are at full speed, their powerful bodies gracefully leaping over obstacles while chasing their prey. Amidst all this excitement, tragedy strikes as Lady Chesham's mare meets an unfortunate end. The artist masterfully depicts the energy and intensity of the chase through intricate details and dynamic lines. The viewer can almost feel the thundering hooves pounding against the ground and sense the adrenaline coursing through both riders and horses alike. "The Sensational Run" not only showcases hunting as a popular pastime but also offers us a glimpse into rural life during that time period. The quaint village setting with its charming cottages adds depth to this historical narrative. This remarkable engraving was originally published in The Graphic on February 21st, 1885 – capturing attention even then for its evocative storytelling ability. Now part of a private collection, it continues to captivate audiences with its timeless portrayal of action-packed equestrian pursuits intertwined with human drama.
