Framed Print of The Calpe Hunt, at Gibraltar, 1895. Creator: Joseph Holland Tringham
The Calpe Hunt, at Gibraltar, 1895. 1. A visit to the kennels. 2. Hounds leaving the kennels. 3. Difficult to find. 4. A rest by the Moorish castle in the cork woods. At the back of "the Rock, " which, rising 1400 ft. high, frowns across the Straits between Spain and Morocco, and guards a bay, not so safe as might be wished against Atlantic gales, but convenient for British naval communication with our fleet in the Mediterranean, lies outside the North Gate of the fortress-town a narrow strip of level ground, connecting the mainland with the promontory of Gibraltar. Beyond the "Spanish Lines" is the "Cork Wood, " a plantation of cork-trees, and here are foxes; and there is a garrison officers pack of hounds, kennelled riders, just under the Rock. It is followed by many good civilians as well as Army men, and is styled "the Calpe Hunt"; for the Greeks and Romans called this ancient port of Phoenician traffic by the name of Calpe...The Rock, the foxhounds, and the huntsmen are familiar to many English visitors; and so is the ruined Moorish building in the Cork Wood. Our Artist presents drawings of these objects and scenes for the instruction of a majority of readers who do not go to "Gib.". From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
