EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of traditional fox hunting in the picturesque countryside of Devon, England, circa 1960s. The Huntsman of the Lamerton Foxhounds, Tavistock, is seen here expertly riding his horse through winding country lanes, leading his pack of eager foxhounds. The foxhounds, with their keen noses and focused expressions, follow closely behind, their cropped ears and tails held high in anticipation. The huntsman, dressed in the distinctive red coat and tall hat, holds a crop in one hand, signaling to his hounds and urging them on. The rolling hills and verdant fields of Devon provide a beautiful backdrop to this age-old pursuit, which has been a cherished part of the English countryside for centuries. The sight of the huntsman and his hounds riding along the narrow roads, flanked by hedgerows and stone walls, is a quintessential image of rural England. Despite the controversy surrounding fox hunting, this photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and tradition behind this sport. The camaraderie between the huntsman and his hounds, the thrill of the chase, and the connection to the land and its wildlife are all elements that continue to draw people to fox hunting, even in today's modern world.
