[Six Drawings of Sporting Notions by Henry Alken. London: 1815-1830.]
An interesting collection of pencil drawings in which Alken (as usual) explores the comical and so often dangerous element of hunting and the follies and foibles of country life. These sketches are preliminary drawings for Alken’s famous Sporting Notions series first published by Thomas M'Lean of London in 1831 and display the artist's signature talent for delicate linework and his ability to present comedic narratives within a singular composition.
Oblong folio (340 x 460mm). Later printed title, 6 pencil drawings, all window-mounted, plate one with ink annotation to verso (very light spotting, and marginal staining). Modern half red morocco over green cloth, covers and spine decorated in gilt, red morocco label to upper cover, lettered and decoratively bordered in gilt. Provenance: HRH The Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester KG, KT, KP (bookplate; sold Christie’s, South Kensington, 30 October 2012, lot 622).
