Lot 239:
Large Nineteenth Century Mezzotint Highland Hunting Scene Crossing a Loch
Description
A large-scale nineteenth-century tonal print, executed in mezzotint with etching, depicting a dramatic Highland stag hunting scene. The composition features several figures in traditional Scottish dress, including a youth in a kilt, alongside horses and a pack of hounds cornering a stag in a rocky riverbed. A waterfall cascades through the mountainous background, characteristic of the Romantic interest in the Scottish Highlands. The print is presented on heavy paper and mounted within a glazed frame. The frame is constructed from dark-stained wood with a gilded inner slip. No legible signatures, plate marks, or publisher’s inscriptions are visible through the glass; the lower margin where such details typically appear is present but appears toned.
