ALKEN, Henry. Shooting . London: Thomas Pulser, 1 June 1817.
ALKEN, Henry. Shooting . London: Thomas Pulser, 1 June 1817. 2° (400 x 552mm). 4 hand-coloured aquatint plates by T. Sutherland after Alken, tipped into an album. (Some light soiling of margins, plate1 with short tear at inner margin, and plate 2 with very short tear below imprint, plate 3 with long marginal tear repaired on verso with adhesive tape.) Late 19th-century brown half morocco, spine lettered longitudinally in gilt, top edge gilt (extremities rubbed). Provenance : Clarence S. Bement (armorial bookplate) – Joseph Widener (bookplate) – purchased from Sessler, Philadelphia, 1954. A SET OF LARGE, HIGHLY ATTRACTIVE AQUATINTS , closely related to the series published by S. and J. Fuller in 1813, with aquatints by R. Reeve. While two of the plates show top-hatted sportsmen in action, another depicts the shooting party and their dogs taking refreshments under the trees, and in the last they can be seen packing up and ‘going home’. Siltzer p. 57.
