EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the picturesque countryside of Sevenoaks in 1938. The image beautifully captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the majestic West Kent fox hounds amidst their hunting expedition. In this snapshot from between the wars, we see a group of well-trained dogs eagerly following their huntsman's lead. Their sleek bodies and alert expressions reveal their innate instinct for the chase. Alongside them stands a proud huntsman, exuding confidence as he guides his pack through the rugged terrain. The scene is completed by a magnificent horse and its rider, both perfectly poised for action. The hunter's attire speaks volumes about an era when rural life was intertwined with tradition and elegance. John Topham's mastery behind the lens shines through in this monochrome masterpiece. His skillful use of light and shadow adds depth to every element within the frame, creating a timeless composition that transports us back to an age where man and beast worked together harmoniously. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we are reminded of Europeana Photography's commitment to preserving historical moments like these – snapshots that encapsulate not only our past but also our shared heritage as humans connected to nature's wonders.
