EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of rural pursuits in Storrington, West Sussex. The scene is set during the opening meet of the Storrington Beagles in October 1938, showcasing an array of beagles alongside their huntsman and whipper-in. The image transports us to a picturesque countryside setting where tradition and camaraderie intertwine. The beagles stand poised and alert, ready for the exhilarating hunt that lies ahead. Their sleek bodies exude elegance as they eagerly await their master's command. In the foreground stands the huntsman, his presence commanding respect as he surveys his loyal pack with pride. By his side is the whipper-in, a trusted companion whose role is crucial in maintaining order amidst this spirited pursuit. Beyond this dynamic duo lies a stunning backdrop - rolling hills dotted with quaint cottages and lush fields stretching into infinity. A vintage car parked nearby hints at modernity creeping into this timeless scene while an inviting pub or inn promises warmth and refreshment after an invigorating day out in nature. This remarkable photograph from George Garland's collection encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also celebrates our enduring connection to nature through field sports. It serves as a testament to West Sussex's rich heritage and its commitment to preserving traditions that have shaped its identity throughout history
