This is a fine quality antique English set of four hand coloured shooting prints, circa 1890, engraved by Thomas Sutherland and published by Rudolph Ackermann of 191 Regent Street, London. We believe they were painted by Schneeburg, who was an American working for the Ackerman company in 1890’s (he died around 1920). The set of prints depicts four shooting Regency scenes – pheasant, partridge, grouse and wild duck, in excellent condition. The Regency themed shooting prints have the skill to draw you in with its range of rustic / pastel colour hues and textures, depicting four different quintessential English shooting scenes. The shooting prints display pleasing soft mellow colours. The prints are each stamped with the specific shooting scene and details of the publisher at the bottom of each print. The mounts have been replaced and the frames re-framed in ebony colour and gilt dentil detail in 1969.
