EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Wanted, a Pointer" by S. T. Dadd takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of hunting and humor. The image showcases a scene from an article published in The Illustrated London News on October 17,1885. In this comical illustration, we find ourselves amidst a group of hunters eagerly awaiting the arrival of their much-needed pointer dog. With despair etched on their faces, these men are desperate for assistance in their pursuit of pheasants. As they anxiously scan the horizon for any sign of their elusive companion, one cannot help but chuckle at their predicament. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable as he captures every emotion and nuance within this scene. From the shy and demure demeanor of the pointer to the determined expressions on each hunter's face, it is evident that Dadd has masterfully depicted both human and animal characteristics. Through his skillful handiwork, Dadd brings this humorous moment to life with impeccable precision. We can almost hear the whispers among these eager hunters as they discuss strategies while waiting for their furry friend's arrival. "Wanted, a Pointer" not only offers entertainment through its witty portrayal but also provides insight into our historical connection with animals in various aspects of life such as farming and hunting. This enchanting print serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, humans relied on animals' unique abilities to assist them in fulfilling specific tasks or desires -
