EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print by Henry Thomas Alken showcases a group of Setters in all their glory. The dogs, known for their exceptional sense of smell and hunting abilities, are depicted with great detail and lifelike colors. Set against a picturesque English countryside backdrop, the scene exudes an air of amusement and joy. Originally published in 1821 as part of British Sports, this reproduction from 1903 maintains exceptional quality. The absence of any screen printing adds to the authenticity and charm of the artwork. It is now housed in a private collection but has been made available for public viewing through Look and Learn's Valerie Jackson Harris Collection. The image not only captures the essence of these magnificent creatures but also offers insight into British sporting culture during that era. With its references to walking sticks and outdoor pursuits, it provides a glimpse into leisure activities enjoyed by both Englishmen and Germans alike. As we admire this piece, we can't help but be reminded of the rich history shared between England and Germany. From their love for sports to their appreciation for fine art, these two nations have long influenced each other's cultures. This print serves as a testament to the enduring beauty found within British art while celebrating our interconnectedness across borders within Europe.
