EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Month of February: Hare Coursing" takes us back to the late 19th century, capturing a moment in time when this bloodsport was still widely practiced. The image showcases the exhilarating chase between a rider, his trusty hounds, and a fleet-footed hare. In this vibrant color lithograph, artist William Nicholson skillfully brings Rudyard Kipling's words to life from their collaboration on An Almanac of Twelve Sports. The composition is rich with detail as it portrays the intensity and excitement of the sport. The rider dons a distinguished top hat while expertly guiding his horse through the rugged terrain, urging his loyal pack of hounds forward. The dogs are captured mid-stride, their eyes focused intently on their prey as they race alongside the rider. Their muscular bodies exude power and agility as they canter effortlessly across open fields. Meanwhile, in an attempt to evade capture, the hare darts gracefully ahead with remarkable speed and grace. This image not only captures a thrilling sporting event but also provides insight into historical practices that have since evolved or been abolished altogether due to changing societal values. It serves as both an artistic representation and a reminder of our complex relationship with animals throughout history. Displayed within this private collection for all to admire, Desmond Banks has preserved this snapshot from another era—a testament to human ingenuity and our ongoing fascination with sportsmanship and competition.
