ALKEN, Henry. Fox-Hunters. London: R. Ackermann, 1828. A set of 4 hand-coloured aquatint plates by R.G. Reeve after Alken (301 x 387mm), laid down in oblong 2° album (365 x 514mm). (First plate with closed internal tear, margins sunned after time in frame.) Modern full red calf, gilt lettering and date on spine and cover.
LARGE PLATES, FULL OF DETAIL AND BEAUTIFULLY COLOURED with series title at upper margin and plate title at lower. Although two accidents do occur in one plate ('Full Cry'), they are at a remote distance and in this series we see a hunt conducted in proper style under the chill autumn sky. Mellon/Snelgrove 29; Schwerdt IV, p. 172 & plt. 101; Siltzer p. 61.
