The Easter Hunt at Epping Forest, Plate Second
Men ride horses from left to right, accompanied by dogs, three of whom have stopped to fight over a piece of meat. A sign at upper left points to "The Bald Stag," while another at right indicates the nearby presence of "The Old Green Man" (both public houses or inns). The etcher of this print has not been identified.
