Lovely, hand-colored, restrike lithograph of an English hunt scene. The hunters are spread out along the rolling hills while the dogs are closing in on the obviously exhausted fox in the foreground. Drawn by W.J. Shaw and engraved by J. Harris, originally in 1864. On heavy paper, lightly toned with a tiny bit of unobtrusive foxing.
