19th Century Hand-Colored Woodcut Engravings of English Hunter, Horse, and Dogs

About the Item

Compilation of Two Hand-Colored Woodcut Engravings by W. Barraud - 19th Century Depictions of an English Hunter with Horse and Dogs This beautiful compilation features two hand-colored woodcut engravings by the artist W. Barraud, depicting idyllic scenes from rural England. In the first engraving, a saddled white horse stands alone beside a stone wall, surrounded by lush greenery. The second image expands the scene to include an English hunter dressed in countryside attire, accompanied by his loyal greyhound and whippet, with a freshly caught hare in hand. Both engravings capture the essence of rural hunting life in the 19th century, showcasing a nostalgic and pastoral view of English countryside traditions. The intricate details and skillful coloring reflect the high quality of 19th-century printmaking, while the artist's initials and the names of engravers Wright and Folkard add to the authenticity and provenance of these works. It's quite possible that these woodcut engravings were copied from original paintings or drawings by William Barraud. William Barraud (1810–1850) was known for his equestrian and sporting scenes, often depicting horses, dogs, and country life, similar to the subjects seen in these engravings. Engravings and prints were commonly made based on popular paintings during the 19th century to make the artwork accessible to a wider audience. The style and subject matter of these engravings align well with Barraud's typical works, suggesting they could indeed be derived from his original paintings. More research needed. Condition: Well-preserved with minor yellowing, vibrant hand coloring, intact edges, and crisp engraving lines. Minimal foxing and slight fading are present but typical for their age, indicating careful handling and good preservation overall.
