.. Antique Print of a Sheep Show (c.1870)

Description: Antique print, titled: 'A Border Sheep-Show.' - View of a sheep show with numerous figures (shepherds, wearing, among others, deerstalker hats and bowler hats), sheep and sheepdogs. Perhaps the sheep are Border Leicester sheep, so called because they were first bred near the border of Scotland. From an English periodical, ca. 1870.

Artists and Engravers: Made by an anonymous engraver after 'John Charlton'. John Charlton (1849–1917) was an English painter and illustrator of historical and especially battle scenes, mainly from contemporary history.
