EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures the essence of British hunting culture in the 19th century. Created by Charles George Lewis, this mixed method engraving on chine collé transports us back to a time when game hunting was not only a sport but also an integral part of aristocratic life. In this image, we witness the remarkable talent of Lewis in capturing both the grace and power of these two iconic creatures. The spaniel, known for its loyalty and skill as a gun dog, stands alert with intense focus while pointing towards its prey – a beautifully detailed pheasant perched delicately on tree branches. Lewis's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. The intricate textures of feathers are meticulously rendered alongside the spaniel's expressive eyes and muscular physique.

This print serves as a timeless reminder of
