The Easter Hunt at Epping Forest, Plate First
Henry William Bunbury
1800–1820 · Hand-colored etching · Drawings and Prints
Chasing an unseen quarry, Londoners ride horses or are seated in a carriage, with chimney sweeps on a donkey joining in the fun. Two pigs lie in the path of the oncoming crowd, and the spectacleis watched by figures from an observation tower. The etcher of this print has not been indentified.
