Description

Two 19th Century Engravings “The Sportsman’s Pocket Companion” by James Roberts and engraved by Henry Roberts

These two prints come from a collection of forty engravings after the work of James Roberts and engraved by Henry Roberts entitled “The Sportsman’s Pocket Companion” published around 1760. Though the horses were drawn by James Roberts, they were likely after other paintings and prints of famous racehorses. The majority of the horses represented in the prints raced between 1708-1755.
