British Style - Sporting Prints Now and Then........from a portable life "Under Canvas"

(All Photos by Tavarua)

The speed and movement captured in the Sporting print - The pleasure of the art form of Hounds, Guns, Fox hunting, Horse-racing and anything to do with the hunt or riding.....
Artists like John Frederick Herring, James Seymore, Henry Alken and George Stubbs made Sporting Life come alive.....


As to unite elegance and utility under simple conditions "Living Under Canvas" and the movement from continent to continent it does not have to be a forgotten art in our era of living. The Sporting print is still a large part of a must in my life of travels...

it's light and very easy to travel with and occasionally maybe it needs to be reframed...years of traveling abuses your belongings...

While "Under Canvas" you want to assure yourself with a certain degree of comfort....is that not why the "knock-down furniture" (Campaign) was designed?

It can at anytime quickly be dismanteled for packing and shipping to any desired destination... the Americas, India, Asia, the South Seas and Africa....or wherever your travels make take you throughout the world....
