The Return from a Course on Lambourn Downs near Ashdown Park, a Hunting Seat of the Right Honourable Fulwar Lord Craven.
J. Seymour Pinx.t. Walker Sculp.t.
London Printed for Rob.t Sayer, at the Golden Buck near Serjeants Inn Fleet Street. [n.d., c.1750.]
Very scarce engraving. Framed. Printed area: 440 x 320mm (17¼ x 12¼"). Frame size: 455 x 570mm (17¾ x 22½"). Unexamined out of frame.
A scene depicting Lord Fulwar Craven, on horse back, in profile to the right, dressed in hunting costume with a view of Ashdown House in the background. The house was built by William Earl Craven (supposedly for Elizabeth of Bohemia, sister of Charles I, but she died before construction was started). It was gifted by the family to the National Trust in 1956 and is now tenanted by Pete Townsend of 'The Who', who has undertaken a substantial renovation. Another attendant to the hunt is also on a horse, behind to the left. A huntsman with a dead hare is standing before him, with two greyhounds and a smaller horse. Fulwar Craven, 4th Baron Craven, was an English nobleman and sportsman who was educated at Rugby School and Magdalen College, Oxford. He was famously fond of racing and hunting, hunting on his Berkshire estates at Hamstead Marshall and Ashdown Park, keeping his own stud of racehorses and founding a racecourse at Lambourn. He and his brother William founded the Craven Hunt.

George Bidder, of Devonshire, AET.13. Whose extraordinary power of Calculation developed itself without instruction & reached an unprecedented height before he attained his seventh year. From a Miniature in the possession of the Rev.d Tho.s Jephson, of St. John's College Cambridge.
Painted by Miss Hayter. Engraved by J.H. Robinson.
London, Published June 25, 1819, by Colnaghi & Co. Cockspur Street.
Engraving. 245 x 175mm (9½ x 7"). Thread margins.
George Parker Bidder (1806-1878), the English engineer, architect and calculating prodigy. In 1834 Robert Stephenson, whose acquaintance he had made in Edinburgh, offered him an appointment on the London & Birmingham Railway, and in the succeeding year or two he began to assist George Stephenson in his parliamentary work, which at that time included schemes for railways between London and Brighton and between Manchester and Rugby via the Potteries. In 1837 he was engaged with Stephenson in building the Blackwall Railway, and it was he who designed the peculiar method of disconnecting a carriage at each station while the rest of the train went on without stopping, which was employed in the early days of that line when it was worked by means of a cable. He also advised on the construction of the Belgian railways; with Robert Stephenson he made the first railway in Norway, from Christiania to Eidsvold; he was engineer-in-chief of the Danish railways, and he was largely concerned with railways in India, where he strongly and successfully opposed break of gauge on through routes. In 1860 he was elected president of the Institution of Civil Engineers. He was also one of the founders of the Electric Telegraph Company, which enabled the public generally to enjoy the benefits of telegraphic communication. In hydraulic engineering, he was the designer of the Victoria Docks (London). Bidder also investigated the practicality of steam trawlers in conjunction with Samuel Lake.
