HARRY BINGHAM NEILSON (1861-1941)
The Topsy Turvy fox hunt. Published in The Fox's Frolic: A Day with the Topsy Turvy Hunt by Sir Francis Burnand (London: William Collins, c. 1917). Watercolor and ink on paper. 9 x 13 1/2 inches. Signed "Harry B. Neilson" in lower right image.

The Fox's Frolic is a delightful fox hunting parody where the foxes ride the hounds in pursuit of the 'brush,' or the head of the farmer's broom.
