EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical print captures the essence of Widecombe Fair, a beloved English tradition. The colourful lithograph depicts a lively scene filled with fairs, gentlemen, country folk, and an array of animals. Set against the backdrop of rolling hills and Dartmoor's picturesque countryside, this image transports you to a bygone era. The fairgoers can be seen enjoying themselves as they ride horses and ponies while singing traditional folk songs. The riders' comical antics add a touch of absurdity to the scene, evoking laughter from both peasants and gentlemen alike. One gentleman stands out in his top hat astride a majestic white horse, symbolizing elegance amidst the rustic charm. The historical significance of Widecombe Fair is evident in this postcard-like representation. It harks back to simpler times when such gatherings were eagerly anticipated events for locals to showcase their livestock - racehorses, shire horses, stallions - alongside other farm animals like ponies and wildlife creatures. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this snapshot of history through their lens. This print not only celebrates the rich heritage associated with Widecombe Fair but also serves as a reminder that traditions should be cherished and preserved for generations to come.
