Photograph of a sculpture representing a male hunter, presented in heroic nudity, standing but slightly stooping in order to hold back a dog by its collar with his right hand while holding a baton in his left hand. The figure is supported by a small post, in the shape of a tree stump, next to his left leg. The sculpture by John Gibson (1790-1866) was exhibited at the Great Exhibition.

This photograph is from Volume IV (RCIN 2800003) of ' Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations, 1851: Reports by the Juries on the Subjects in the Thirty Classes into which the Exhibition was Divided'. The incredibly successful Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations, commonly known as the Great Exhibition, ran from May to October 1851. At the exhibition's conclusion, over 100 copies of the four volume 'Reports by the Juries' were distributed to foreign governments and notable participants. The reports consist of the juries' comments and assessments of the works displayed in the exhibition. The idea and decision to illustrate the reports with photographs is attributed to Prince Albert (1819-61).
