SAMUEL HOWITT 4 1 



Copies of A New Work of Animals with the 

 plates coloured by hand were also published. 



Foreign Field Sports, by T. Heaviside Clark, 

 which was published in 1814, contained 1 10 

 coloured plates, including a supplement representing 

 the sports of New South Wales, many of which 

 were executed by Howitt. 



British Preserves, published in 1823, by Sher- 

 wood, Gilbert and Piper, of London, contained 

 forty-three plates from Howitt's drawings of wild 

 animals and birds. 



Many of his pictures were engraved after his 

 death. In the Aimals of Sporting for the years 

 1826, 1827, and 1828, we find three plates, "Phea- 

 sants Basking," " Partridges " and " Bloodhounds," 

 engraved from Howitt's works. 



The volumes of the New Sporting Magazine for 

 1832, 1837, and 1840, contain plates "from his 

 pictures, "Owls," "Leopard seizing an Antelope," 

 and " Elk pursued by Wolves." The Sporting 

 Review of 1843 contains "Deer in Windsor 

 Forest." 



There are many examples of his works in the 

 Print Room of the British Museum. The National 

 Dictionary of Biography states that Mrs. Samuel 

 Hastings, great granddaughter of the artist, pos- 

 sesses a large number of his works.
