Description: | In this wintry scene, a man with a gun and dog chase a hare through the snow. A similar scene appears as a small engraving by Luke Clennell in 'Water Birds' by the North East wood-engraver Thomas Bewick. The book was published in 1804, the last year of Clennell's apprenticeship with Bewick. Countryside activities often featured as small engravings used to decorate spaces in the text in Bewick's books. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | artists living in the North East animals watercolours other North East buildings and views art designers leisure men natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
