Antelope-Hunting in India - Preparing to Return, 1858. Engraving from sketches by Captain W. R. Goodall, of the Military Train, who writes: '...the antelope has been run into and killed, and fastened behind the saddle of the sportsman. Some vultures on a rock close by are waiting for anything the dogs may have left of their share of the spoil. The country represented is much the same as the neighbourhood of Bangalore and the Mysore division generally. The dogs in the sketches are portraits of some very fine Australian kangaroo dogs of my own'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858.
