EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Sport in the Eighteenth Century" transports us back to a lively scene from the early 18th century. Created by the renowned artist William Hogarth in 1925, this artwork captures the essence of a Pocklington cockfight taking place in London. The image depicts a bustling crowd gathered around an arena, eagerly watching as two roosters engage in an intense battle. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and noise as spectators cheer on their chosen bird. Men and women alike are engrossed in the spectacle, their faces reflecting a mix of anticipation and thrill. Hogarth's attention to detail is evident throughout the engraving - from the intricate feathers of the fighting cocks to the expressions on each individual's face. This piece not only showcases his artistic prowess but also serves as a historical record of blood sports that were popular during this era. The print is taken from Sir Walter Besant's book "London in the Eighteenth Century" published by A. & C. Black Ltd. , London, in 1925. It offers viewers a glimpse into life within urban Britain during this time period, highlighting one aspect of leisure activities enjoyed by both men and women. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at how different our concept of entertainment has become over centuries while appreciating art's ability to transport us across time and immerse us into different worlds.
