Highly sought after during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, these prints endure today as vivid, direct, and even witty symbols of English culture. Catching Sight features more than eighty prints and three essays that go beyond the symbolism to examine these works from both art-historical and social perspectives.Malcolm Cormack details the production and sale of sporting prints; Mitchell Merling explores the aesthetic implications of the sophisticated visual languages employed by sporting artists; and Corey Piper analyzes the meaning of the prints in the larger context of late eighteenth- and nineteenth-century rural society. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Terms and Conditions of Purchase ü Your item will usually ship 1-2 business days after payment has been received. ü If not paid instantly with PayPal, please use the checkout option within three days of winning single item auctions. ü ü In line with new EBay policy, only Paypal payment is accepted, and is due in three days after purchase.
