"From the picture in the Sheepshanks Gallery

The picture from which this engraving is taken is a comparatively early example of Landseer's works, having been exhibited with two others, 'Dead Deer and Highlander' and 'Deerhound and Dead Game' at the British Institution, in 1826, the year in which the artist was elected an Associate of the Royal Academy."  (Art Journal 1877) 

It was presented as a gift to the English nation by Mr. Sheepshanks in 1857.   The engraving has some foxing on the border and barely noticeable at the top and bottom left.  Otherwise a restful country scene once matted and framed.
