171. Seven Studies of a Gray Horse’s Head, disposed in as
many various positions. This is an admirable example of the
dexterous skill and imitative powers of the artist.

172. A Convoy of Baggage Waggons attacked by a corps
of cavalry in a mountainous pass. The principal group
consists of a body of cavalry, hotly engaged with their
antagonists ; both horses and men lie dead around them. A
little remote from these is a confused number, attacking a
party near a waggon; again below them, on the right, are
other bodies of troops in conssict. The scene exhibits a bold
rocky pass, of dangerous and difficult ascent.

173. A Man and a Woman Fording a Stream. The view
offers, on the left, a pile of lofty rocks of a perpendicular form,
crowned with bushes, and having a shallow stream ssowing
at their base, through which are passing a herdsman, and a
woman, with oxen, and among them is a white one of singular
beauty. On the opposite side are a peasant on horseback, in
conversation with another on foot, and a boy with a basket
under his arm, encouraging a dog to bark at an ox. Beyond
this group, the eye looks over a barren moor, bounded by
mountains. This is a specimen of the choicest quality.
