EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Shooting, plate 2" takes us back to the English countryside in the year 1770. Engraved by the talented William Woollett, this fifth state engraving and etching showcases his exceptional skill in capturing detail and depth. The artwork is a reproduction of George Stubbs' original masterpiece. Measuring at an impressive 44.4x55.5 cm, this print can transport you to a different era with its depiction of rural life and sport. In the foreground, we see a hound eagerly pointing towards its target, while a hunter prepares his shotgun for action. A quaint cottage stands proudly amidst the picturesque landscape, adding charm to the scene. The image evokes feelings of nostalgia as it captures not only a moment in time but also reflects on traditional English pastimes such as hunting and game shooting. It serves as a reminder of our connection to nature and how these activities were once deeply ingrained within society. Displayed at Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the USA, this artwork holds historical significance that transcends borders and time periods. Its presence reminds us of our shared cultural heritage and invites us to appreciate both artistry and history simultaneously.
