50. A Hawking Partv. The view presents the usual hilly
scene so often repeated by the artist, and is divided by a
winding road, on which is a party of gentlemen enjoying the
amusement of hawking; they are attended by a falconer
bearing a hoop of hawks. Painted in his finished manner, and
in a clear and admirable tone of colouring.

51. A View on a High Road, with several houses, of a pic-
turesque appearance, on the right, having a well, and a rustic
fence in front of them, and a cluster of trees at their extremity.
A woman, occupied in scouring a pot on a tub, stands near
an old tree by the side of the well; and on the road, close to
the front, are a man on a brown horse, carrying a sack before
him, and a man with along stick, followed by two dogs: beyond
these are a man and a woman with packs, near the turn of the
road. The distance represents a woody country. Painted in
the artist’s gray tone of colour, and highly finished : the figures
are by the hand of Philip Wouwermans.
