Huge original antique engraving print from an 1850s illustrated journal. This antique print depicts a post-hunt torchlight celebration, in which the head and entrails of the deer stag is given to the hunting dogs. It is symbolic, but also rewards the dogs for their hard work. You can see the excitement of the dogs.

It is very large (double folio size), measuring approximately 22 x 16 inches (56 x 40.5 cm). The picture fills most of the page, with a caption below. There is unrelated text/photos on the back of this print.


The print has a fold in the middle, where it was folded into the magazine long ago. Note that the fold line is clean and undamaged, because it was "tipped" into the binding. This was a luxury binding technique of that era, because the double page prints were free of binding holes down the center.

The page is in excellent condition for its age. See scan for an accurate view of the condition.

This print will come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
