EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and action-packed print that beautifully captures the thrill and excitement of horseback riding in the countryside. Engraved by the talented Henry Alken in 1825, this colorful artwork showcases a group of skilled riders on their hunting expedition. The composition immediately draws our attention to a dramatic moment as one rider attempts to jump over a gateway while accompanied by his loyal pack of hounds. However, fate seems to have other plans as he finds himself unseated from his horse mid-air. The intensity of the scene is heightened by the presence of other riders who are skillfully navigating their way through the challenging terrain. Paul John Dean's meticulous attention to detail brings every element of this rural landscape to life. From the lush greenery surrounding them to the sturdy stone wall they encounter along their journey, each aspect adds depth and authenticity to this sporting event. This engraving not only celebrates equestrianism but also highlights both sportswomen and sportsmen engaging in an exhilarating pursuit. It serves as a reminder that even experienced riders can face unexpected challenges during such endeavors. Displayed proudly within a private collection, "The First Ten Minutes" continues to captivate viewers with its dynamic portrayal of horsemanship and camaraderie among hunters. This timeless piece remains an enduring testament to British sporting artistry and its ability to transport us into thrilling moments frozen in time.
