EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th-century engraving titled "Pheasant Shooting" takes us back in time to witness a traditional hunting scene. Created by Daniel Dodd and engraved by Thomas Prattent, this handcoloured copperplate print showcases the elegance and excitement of pheasant shooting in the late 1700s. In the foreground, we see a hunter attentively observing as two spaniels flush out a vibrant pheasant from its hiding place within a bush. The vivid colors used to depict the dogs' coats and feathers add depth and realism to the artwork. The hunter holds his musket firmly, ready for action. The image captures not only the thrill of the hunt but also highlights various elements of British countryside life during that era. It symbolizes both recreation and amusement for nobleman, gentlemen, and farmers alike. The presence of these well-trained canines reminds us of their crucial role in assisting hunters throughout history. From collie dogs to guard dogs, they were loyal companions on these expeditions. This engraving is part of William Augustus Osbaldistons' comprehensive work titled "The British Sportsman". Its inclusion in this dictionary emphasizes its significance as an essential reference for individuals interested in recreational activities such as hunting. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back centuries ago when nature's beauty intertwined with man's pursuit for sport and adventure.
