'Salmon and Otter'

This print by S. Loudan after a painting by Sir E. Landseer was reproduced in The Illustrated Times on 1 October 1859. It shows an otter lying across the salmon it has just caught. They are by a waterfall with rocks on either side. The otter and salmon are on a grassy bank with the otter's tail still in the water.

The Herschels prints and drawing collection becomes increasingly drawn from illustrations extracted from one of the many illustrated newspapers on the market from the second half of the 19th century onward.
