Over and Under - A Captivating Coursing Sketch
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This enchanting engraving titled "Over and Under" captures the exhilarating sport of coursing in the 19th century. Created by an anonymous English School artist, this print showcases a thrilling moment as two graceful greyhounds leap through the air with remarkable agility. The composition is filled with energy and movement, as the dogs soar above a rustic countryside backdrop. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life - from the dogs' sleek coats rippling in mid-air to their intense focus on their prey. Their determination is palpable, reflecting both their natural hunting instincts and the excitement coursing through them. Published in The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News in January 1881, this sketch offers a glimpse into a popular pastime of that era. Coursing was not only enjoyed for its competitive nature but also celebrated for its elegance and gracefulness. As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported back in time to witness these magnificent creatures at their finest. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with animals' innate abilities and our admiration for those who capture such moments on paper. This fine art print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the skill of the artist behind it and the timeless beauty of coursing itself – an exquisite fusion of athleticism, artistry, and nature's raw power.
