“Boy and Rabbit”, after Sir Henry Raeburn RA (1756 - 1823). Coloured artist's proof; engraving. WILSON, Sydney Ernest (b. 1869- ca. 1963). Early 20th century. With label on the back (Vicars Brothers Ltd., London). On the front, signature and text in pencil in the lower right corner; and text at the top. Framed, this image is inspired by the painting by Sir Henry Raeburn RA (1756 - 1823) made around 1814 and preserved in the Royal Academy in London (inventory 03/703). This piece is a work by the English engraver Sydney Ernest Wilson (Isleworth 1869–ca. 1963 Hemel Hempstead), whose signature appears in pencil in the lower right corner of the front, just above the words “selected proof” that would allude to the type of piece present. On the back, and thanks to a label from the London antique dealers Vicars Brothers, more details of this work can be read.
