EDITORS COMMENTS

This exquisite engraving by Lancelot Speed showcases his exceptional talent for detail and composition. In this print, we see a group of hunters standing amidst a picturesque landscape. The crisp lines and intricate shading bring each figure to life, while the stark contrast adds depth and drama to the scene. The majestic stags stand proudly in the foreground, their antlers reaching towards the sky as if challenging fate itself. It is evident that this is no ordinary hunt; it is "The Last Stalk of the Season". There is an air of melancholy surrounding these hunters as they bid farewell to their beloved pastime until next year.

"The Last Stalk of the Season" stands as a testament to Speed's mastery as an artist and offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when hunting was not only sport but also tradition. It serves as a reminder that even though times change, some traditions remain etern
