1873179980London.: The Illustrated London News. May 241873. Full-page engraving: 23.4 x 31.3 cm image only explanatory text overleaf minor edge wear very good condition. Atmospheric and detailed composition engraved by the firm of Joseph Swain Oxford 1820 - Ealing 1908. Swain was one of the finest wood engravers and interpreters of artists' work of the Victorian era noted for his contributions to "Punch" and wood engravings after designs by some of the most distinguished English artists of the time. He is noted for his swirling lines and tonal effects rendering the modulation of light. See Simon Cooke "A Clever Man: Joseph Swain as an Engraver and Interpreter" online at The Victorian Web. <br> <br>From the Estate of the late collector and scholar Arthur Hacker. .

1873179510London.: The Illustrated London News. April 121873. Full-page engraving 23.8 x 31.2 cm plus caption on a single newspaper leaf sheet a little toned marginal spotting the image in very good condition. The Shanghai Paper Hunt Club was founded in December 1863. The Illustrated London News' "Special Artist" William Simpson in his commentary overleaf notes that "The 67th Regiment who were stationed at Shanghai about ten years ago introduced it at this place. The character of the country here as well as the breed of Tartar ponies seem well suited to the sport." Membership of the Club remained the preserve of male expats until the late 1920s when it was opened to Chinese membership. As is suggested in the engraving whilst the prey was paper rather than foxes the sport could still be brutal for both horse and rider. Simpson brings his skill and experience as a war artist to the observation of the hunt. <br> <br>William Simpson 1823-1899 Scottish war artist and correspondent joined the 'Illustrated London News' in the 1860s and covered the Abyssinian campaign 1868 Franco-Prussian war Modoc war 1873 and Second Afghan war. He had previously covered the Crimean war on behalf of publishers and lithographers Colnaghi's. <br> <br>From the Estate of the late collector and scholar Arthur Hacker. .
