Hirschschlitten / Deer Sleigh

Active selection in cart:
Hirschschlitten. Zu den noblen Liebhabereien des 18 Jahrh gehorte es, anstatt der Pferde gezahmte Hirsche vor den Schlitten zu spannen. Der Adel hielt sich ja auf seinen Landsitzen meist einen Tierpark mit gepflegtem, oft seltenem Wildbestand. Der Aufenthalt auf einem der kleinen, mit den Prachtschlossern zugleich erbauten Jagdschlosschen war eine Abwechslung im hofischen Leben. Translation: Deer Sleigh. One of the noble hobbies of the 18th century was harnessing tame deer to the sleigh instead of horses. The nobility usually kept an animal park on their country estates with a well-kept, often rare stock of game. Staying in one of the small hunting lodges built at the same time as the magnificent castles was a change from courtly life. Illustration for Deutsche Kulturbilder, 1400-1900 (Cigaretten-Bilderdienst Hamburg-Bahrenfeld, 1934).
