EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Coursing at Stonehenge" takes us back in time to the year 1870. The engraving, created by William Small after an original artwork, beautifully captures a scene of excitement and anticipation. In this historic image, we find ourselves amidst the ancient stone pillars of Stonehenge, an iconic druid temple that has stood for centuries. A group of elegantly dressed men on horseback gather together with their hunting dogs, ready for a thrilling day of hare coursing. The atmosphere is electric as the participants eagerly await the start of the race. The judge stands tall in his position, observing every detail before giving the signal to release the hounds. The slipper holds onto a magnificent greyhound tightly, ensuring fair play. As our eyes wander through this enchanting composition, we can almost hear the barks and feel the adrenaline pumping through our veins. It's a moment frozen in time where tradition meets exhilaration. This photograph not only showcases an exciting sporting event but also highlights how ancient monuments like Stonehenge continue to be revered and utilized throughout history. It serves as a reminder that even within these mystical surroundings, life goes on - traditions are upheld and passions are pursued. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with a remarkable piece from their Fine Art Finder collection that transports us into another era filled with adventure and cultural significance.
