About the Item
Handcolored aquatint made after Henry Alken by J. Clark. Published by T. McLean, London, 1820.
The antique aquatint titled 'Bear Baiting' by J. Clark portrays a scene related to the cruel and now outlawed practice of bear-baiting, a form of entertainment where a captive bear was set upon by dogs.
During bear-baiting events, the bear would be chained or confined in an area while dogs were released to attack it, resulting in a brutal and often deadly spectacle. Unfortunately, this inhumane practice was popular in certain regions despite being banned later in the 19th century.
The aquatint depicts the ambiance and participants involved in this cruel activity, normally showing spectators gathered around a bear-baiting event. These artworks, while reflecting historical aspects of rural life and entertainment of the time, also highlight the social attitudes towards animal welfare during the early 19th century.
It's important to note that bear-baiting and similar forms of animal cruelty have rightly been prohibited in many countries due to their unethical and inhumane nature. Contemporary perspectives view such activities as completely unacceptable due to the suffering inflicted on the animals involved.
