This antique hand-colored etching titled “Running in View,” etched by Alken, depicts a dynamic sporting landscape scene rendered with fine line work and period hand coloring. The composition captures movement and depth typical of early 19th-century British sporting and landscape prints associated with the Alken family, renowned for their equestrian and hunting subjects. The subtle coloring enhances the engraved details while preserving the crispness of the etched lines. Presented unframed, this piece is well-suited for collectors of sporting art, British prints, or antique works on paper.
