ALKEN, Henry Thomas (1785-1851)

Panorama of a Fox Hunt. London: R. Ackermann, 1828.

A good example of this rare panorama in original cylindrical binding. The full title reads: 'H. Alken's Panorama of a Fox Hunt shewing a large scope of the Leicestershire, Rutlandshire and Lincolnshire counties: with all sorts of riders, good, bad, and indifferent'. Although the death is shown on the cover, in the panorama itself the fox is running far ahead of the hounds. The huntsmen are widely stretched, many not managing to start, others crowded behind a farm gate, and some of those further ahead suffering from falls and spills. Bobins IV, 1298; Mellon/Snelgrove p.16 (example on a cylinder); Siltzer p.61.



Etched continuous strip panorama (97 x 2226mm), coloured by a contemporary hand and with engraved title, on six sheets of wove paper, joined (large tear to title, occasional repaired marginal tears, light soiling to edges). Original wooden cylinder with mounted hand-coloured soft-ground varnished etching (base of cylinder sometime replaced, varnish rubbed with some loss). Housed in modern brown box, lettered in gilt.
