Sir Hercules

This original antique engraving was published in 1843 in London in the first and only edition of "Sports, British and Foreign" by Walter Spiers. This illustrated the pursuit of sportsmen in every corner of the globe. These highly detailed engravings were made by some of the best artists and engravers of the period such as Sir Edwin Landseer. Some marginal foxing and water staining.
