拍品专文

These important cloth hangings belong to a small group of surviving painted cloths in England, of which the most complete and well-known are those at Owlpen Manor, Gloucestershire, securely dated to 1719. Certainly the clothing worn by the hunters depicted is consistent with a date of circa 1720.
Other hanging cloths with hunting scenes are at Yarde House, Devon and Gainsborough Old Hall, Lincolnshire. Other known cloths belonging to this group are in the Anne of Cleves Museum in Lewes, Sussex; The White House in Munslow, Shropshire; Luton Museum and The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust.
