EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century showcases a Dictionary illustration of a Setting Dog, or Setter. The detailed artwork by the English School is part of A Dictionary of General Knowledge by George Crabb, published in 1833. The elegant depiction captures the grace and poise of this beloved hunting dog breed.
The Setter is shown in a classic setting pose, ready to assist its master in locating game. The intricate lines and shading bring out the beauty of this noble creature, highlighting its keen sense of smell and unwavering focus.
As we gaze upon this historical print, we are transported back to a time when hunting was not just a sport but also a way of life. The engraver's skillful hand has immortalized the Setter in all its glory, making it an enduring symbol of loyalty and companionship.
This black-and-white masterpiece serves as a reminder of our deep connection with animals and nature. It evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler times when man and dog worked together harmoniously in pursuit of their shared passion for the hunt.
Let this enchanting image inspire you to appreciate the beauty and majesty of these magnificent creatures that have been our faithful companions for centuries.
