. This print, dating back to October 17th, 1885, offers a fascinating snapshot of a bustling horse auction. The scene unfolds outside in the open air as spectators gather around to witness this lively trade. In this particular moment captured by an unknown creator for The Graphic publication, we are drawn to a group of hunters raising objections during the bidding process. The engraving showcases farmers and professional hunters displaying their prized animals with pride.
