EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Coursing, the Turn" takes us back to the 19th century English countryside, where rural pastimes and leisure activities were cherished. The engraving, part of a private collection, showcases an intense moment in the sport of coursing. The scene depicts a thrilling turn in the chase as hounds pursue a hare with incredible speed and agility. The artist from the English School masterfully captures the energy and excitement of this ancient sport. Every detail is meticulously engraved, showcasing both the gracefulness of the hounds and their determination to catch their prey. Although we do not know which book this illustration was created for around 1840, it remains an enduring testament to England's sporting heritage. Coursing was once a popular activity among nobility and gentry alike, providing entertainment while also testing the skills of both dogs and their handlers. As we admire this historical artwork by Bridgeman Images under Look and Learn copyright protection, we are transported to a time when nature played host to these exhilarating pursuits. This print serves as a reminder that sports have always been an integral part of human culture—a way for us to connect with our surroundings while celebrating our competitive spirit.
