PLATE XXI. 



NEPTUNE, PAINTED BY E. LANDSEER, ENGRAVED BY T. LANDSEER. 



A beautiful and highly characteristic engraving of a favourite Newfoundland Dog. 

 It is engraved by Mr. Thomas Landseer from a drawing by his brother Edwin, and highly 

 admired as a faithful likeness of the original. 



PLATE XXII. 



BRUTUS, PAINTED BY E. LANDSEER, ENGRAVED BY T. LANDSEER. 



The property of Edwin Landseer, Esq. Good judges may at once perceive in this portrait 

 the points that constitute a thorough good one of the breed. Rough, wiry and strong, with eyes 

 almost concealed, Brutus is yet active, vigilant and courageous, possessing in great perfection 

 the qualities most desirable in the terrier. 



PLATE XXIII. 



A CROSS OF THE DOG AND FOX, PAINTED BY E. LANDSEER, ENGRAVED BY T. LANDSEER. 



The subject of this fine engraving had occasioned much doubt in the minds of naturalists, 

 but the question as to its reality was decided, by the fact of the animal whose portrait we give, 

 having been produced from a tan terrier bitch and a tame dog 1 fox. 



PLATE XXIV. 



DOGS SETTING A HARE, PAINTED BY E. LANDSEER, ENGRAVED BY T. LANDSEER. 



Two dogs having caught the side wind of a hare are making a highly characteristic point. 

 Nothing can more forcibly express that mute animation which gives so highly-toned a finish to 

 the abilities of the setting dog as this vigorous and faithful delineation of their countenances. 

 The Pointer is placed in a very interesting attitude admirably contrasted with the well chosen 

 position of the setter his companion ; while the hare, the object of their attraction, is not only 

 judiciously placed, but the representation is strikingly true to nature. This representation of 

 dogs setting a hare displays not only a correct knowledge of the subject but is one of those faithful 

 delineations that cannot fail to merit the most unqualified approbation.
