1790réf. 200098AG1790. London John Deeley c.1790. Original hand-coloured engraving. Plate Size: 61 cm x 46.5 cm. Frame Size: 77 cm x 63 cm. In very good- condition. Minor abrasion with slight tear to upper part of engraving. A wonderful scene by John Nost Sartorius illustrating a late 18th century British fox hunt in rich clear engravings by J. Neagle and J. Peltro. Plate IV shows the bad/good culmination of the hunt one's opinion depending on whose side one takes - the hunters or the hunted as the team of riders and excited hounds have captured the fox. The differing expressions on the riders' faces are fascinating. The accompanying lines of verse from William Somerville's 'The Chase' 1735 read as follows: "A chosen few / Alone the sport enjoy nor droop beneath / Their pleasing toils. The unerring hounds / With peals of echoing vengeance close pursue. / Listen! now they are at him again. Now Reynard / Look to yourself. It is just up with him. / What a crash they make; the whole wood resounds. / That turn was very short. There now; / Aye; now they have him. Who-hoop. Further inscription reads: 'To Charles Boldero Esqr of Aspeden Hall Herts. This Print is dedicated by his much obliged and obedient Servant John Harris.' John Nost Sartorius 17551828 was an English painter of horses horse-racing and hunting scenes. He is considered the best-known and prolific of the Sartorius family of artists. Wikipedia unknown

The lines of verse from William Somerville's 'The Chase' 1735 read as follows: "Here Huntsman from the height / Observe you Birds of prey; if I can judge / 'Tis there the villain lurks; they hover round / And claim him as their own. / Was I not right / See! there he creeps along: Ha! yet he flies / Nor yields to black despair but one loose more / And all his wiles are vain."

1710réf. 375AG1710. Cambridge c. 1710. Original copper engraving hand-coloured. 41 x 21 cm. Minor lesions to left outer margins. Small defect to left side of the engraving. A stunning example of Blome's famous Hunting Treats in beautiful handcolouring. Beautifully framed. Richard Blome 1635-1705 was a publisher and cartographer from the Kingdom of England. Richard Blome's cartography flourished in the second half of the seventeenth century. He produced a great amount of maps but none were original and he was often accused of plagiarism although usually made no attempt to hide his sources. His maps were attractive and quaintly designed and they still retain their nostalgic look. Blome's series of county maps were combined in the Britannia based on the latest editions of mapmaker John Speed and was published in 1673 but was not a success. It was followed in 1681 by an issue of smaller maps entitled Speed's Maps Epitomiz'd. Most of his work was engraved by Wenceslaus Hollar Richard Palmer and Francis Lamb and embellished with dedications to county dignitaries which were added or omitted in later editions.

Old folds. 2 pages; with original envelope featuring pen and ink portrait of a bear on the back; and with clipped article from the "Mexican Herald" of December 24 1895. 4to. A charming tribute with subtle overtures from three Swedish bachelors living in Mexico to three California sisters whose hunting prowess was described in an article in the "Mexican Herald." Headlined "Three California Dianas. They Kill Bears and Panthers and Olive in Particular is an Expert Shot" the article describes the sisters who live in the "wilderness above Ukiah California" as "sportswomen of rare talent" and gives an account of their encounter with a bear which ends up with their treeing and killing the animal. The letter reads in part: ".we think it would interest you to know that your bravery and pluck are known even outside your own Country . We have read and reread the article and . we could not restrain ourselves from sending our respects. Down here you would find a great field for your guns. We have all kinds of big game . it is nothing unusual to meet an 8 or 9 feet sic tiger on the roads when we are out riding. We will described one of our hunting experiences that might interest you." The letter goes on to relate how after wounding and trailing a deer towards a lagoon "a big Puma jumped out from the jungle and pounced upon our poor wounded deer. A rifleshot and we had both deer and Puma." The letter continues: "We are three Swedes 26 28 & 31 years old and run a fruit plantation in partnership in the district of Huasteca on the shores of the beautiful Panuco river. We have been here only 5 months but we have found the prospects for the future very bright. We would greatly enjoy a few lines from you as to ascertain whether our epistle ever reached you . and if the article is a ghost-story or not." They close "With admiration for the 3 brave Dianas in California. unknown
