A NOTABL E ART EN TERPRISE 1 



The Spor tsman's Reverie. 



1 SERIES OF PICTURES FOR SPORTSMEN. 



READERS of the Forest and Stream cannot fail to recollect Mr. Thomas P. Watson 

 poem entitled, "The Sportsman's Reverie," printed in this journal about two years ago. 

 Later on a few stanzas were added to cover other scenes of typical American sport with the 

 gun. The author depicted vividly the varied visions which come before the view of tbe vete- 

 ran sportsman as he sits in easy chair before the fire. Of the author and bis poem the Detroit 

 tree Press said in an appreciative notice: "The author is evidently a man of the most 

 acute sportsmauly enthusiasm, as well as of nice literary taste. H's poem is built upon a 

 very simple plan. Before a cheerful fire — like Ike Marvel's hero — sits a veteran of rod and 

 ffun; he grows half drowsy over pipe and fire and the poet has caught — with a nice and 

 sensitive appreciation— the remini duces of a kundred hunts which flit through bis brain. 

 One experience after another is described with graceful pen touches the quail, the wood- 

 cock, the snipe, tbe deer, fall before tbe crack of the gun; a long day's sport — a glorious 

 day such as no man ever compassed between sun and sun — is described, even the trout, 

 trom the clear rapid, paying tiibute to the prowess of a dreamland sportsman, until at last, 

 with tbe fall of tbe quiet night shadows, the sportsmaD draws his boat to the shore, his 

 tired retriever crouches at his feet, and, with his clucks, tbe final tropin -s of his sport, at his 

 side, he looks back, over the darkening water; and then, once again at his fireside, the end 

 of the vision comes naturally and gracefully." 



And now these "word pictures" of the poet have been complemented with the actua 

 canvas pictures of the painter, Artist-port and poet-artist have united to give us tbe poem 

 in a magnificent setting. Mr. Robert Hopkin, the celebrated artist of Detroit, ha« painted 

 a series of twelve pictures, each U lling in color what the poem tells in words. From these 

 paintings have betn made superb heliotype engravings, each having beneath it the particu- 

 lar verse of the poem illustrated. Tbe series is remaikable for strict adherence to nature 

 fidelity in portraying action, and artistic merit. 



THE TWELVE PICTURES: 



No. 1 shows the hunter seated in an easy 

 attitude in an arm chair, gazing reflectively 

 into the fire on the. heartn. Above the tire- 

 place are the head and antlers of a deer. The 

 sportsman's liglit arm is around the neck of 

 his dog, which is resting on his haunches be- 

 side the chair. His left hand holds his pipe. 

 The firelight flickers on the floor and around 

 the legs of the chair. 



No. 2 represents dawn breaking over a 

 small lake. The night shades are fleeing. A 

 mist is rising from the eastern end of the 

 lake, of which trees fringe the edge. A plover 

 is circling in the air, and in the foreground is 

 a mallard lazily flying out over the glassy 

 water. 



No. 3 represents snipe shooting. In the fore- 

 ground is the sportsman, his body twisted 

 around to the left iu tbe attitude of making a 

 oo 'ble on snipe. Standing beside him is the 

 setter, waiting for the word to retrieve. To 

 his right is the border of a wood, the branches 

 bending to the strong wind. In the distance 

 are tbe sails of craft on the lake. 



No. 4 —woodcock shooting— shows an open- 

 ing in tbe copse around whose border a brook 

 is winding. In tbe foreground, standing 

 deep in toe ferns and rank vegetation, is a 

 setter on . a point. Behind the dog is the 

 sportsman in the attitude of shooting at a 

 bud flying directly over him. 



No. 5 shows a quail hunter in the foreground, 

 walking along leaoy for the shot, which will 

 follow the rise of the birds, on which the dog 

 is drawing to a point. A haze is ovtr all, and 

 the sky is that of a day in Indian summer. 



No. 6 depicts grouse or partridge shooting 

 in the beech woods. The hunter is walki. g 

 dosvn a slope. The dog has come to a point 

 ahead of him. The bird has flushed and the 

 hunter is shown aiming. The pointer has 

 6 tiff eued into an attitude of strained atten- 



tion, as he watclies the bird fly away. Th 

 u per part of the sportsman's body is in the 

 shaaow, the lower part in the string light o£ 

 the sun rays. 



No. 7 shows an angier reeling in a trout. A 

 brook is tumbling down through tbe woods 

 and over the rocks into the pool. The sky ia 

 cloudy and the sunlignt is struggling througo. 



No. 8— deer shooting— is a forest scene In 

 the foreground a ouck, just shot, is fal ing on 

 the edge of a lake, lea ring down tbe s-lope 

 behind him are two hounds. To the left, be- 

 hind l he roots of an upturned tree, are seen 

 the head and shoulders of the hunter, whose 

 rifle is still bearing on the deer. 



No. 9 repre-ents shoof'ng over decoys. A 

 gale is blowing and the water of the cnanne 

 outside is lashed into whitecaps. In the bay 

 the decoys are tossing in the chopping wavss, 

 In the foreground is a point ot rushes, in 

 which the skiff ot the hunter is partially con- 

 cealed. The flock of ducks, which has just 

 swung in outride the decoys, is broken by the. 

 discharge of the tbst barrel. One section is 

 wheeling out over the river. The other has 

 broken off to the side and is wheeling cut 

 again to meet the first section. Some scat- 

 tered birds are dashing above tbe head of the 

 hunter, aud he is twuted around in bis *k ff 

 aiming at a bird flyicg above and behind 

 him. 



No. 10 shows flight duck shooting. The seen 

 is a marsh, on whose broken surtaee the sun 

 is setting behind the clouds. In the foie- 

 ground, on a grassy point, are the hunter and 

 his spaniel. The nunter is in a kneeling ai.ti- 

 tude and in the act of tiring ir-s firsr, barrel. 

 The spaniel is plunging into the water to re- 

 trieve the bira which has fallen to the first, 

 barrel. In the distance are flying ducks. 



Nos. 11 and 12 represent the hunter retiri_g 

 from the marsh and at home, and these two 

 are among the strongest of the set. 



The pictures are printed on the best 1501b. plate paper; size of paper 24x30in. ; size o* 

 print I4ixl7iiu. The pictures have the tint and tint border and the artist's remarque, a^a 

 form artist's proofs, an edition de luxe. 



The prices of these engravings are as follows: Singly, $3.00; any group of 4, $10.00; thi> 

 complete set, $30.00. Any group of four may be ordered, but we beg to suggest the follow-
