EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Sport in North Devon, Trout-Fishing and Otter-Hunting" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a picturesque scene of outdoor activities in the tranquil countryside. The print showcases two popular pastimes of that era - trout fishing and otter hunting - both cherished by enthusiasts seeking adventure amidst nature's beauty. In this idyllic setting, surrounded by vibrant wildflowers, we witness a group of individuals engaging in their chosen pursuits. On one side, anglers are seen casting their lines into the clear waters of the Taw River, eagerly awaiting a bite from elusive trout. On the other side, an otter hunt is underway as skilled hounds lead hunters through the valley in search of their quarry. The image exudes a sense of harmony between man and nature; it portrays a day filled with excitement yet respects the delicate balance between sport and preservation. As evening approaches and shadows lengthen across the landscape, each participant finds solace in their own quiet corner within this breathtaking North Devon backdrop. This enchanting print not only captures moments frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of our timeless connection to outdoor pursuits. It allows us to appreciate how generations before us found joy and fulfillment through these age-old sports while immersing themselves in nature's embrace.
