Description

Signed First Edition. Includes four colour plates and numerous black-and-white illustrations throughout. A charming collection capturing the spirit, humour, and character of the sporting world through Snaffles’ distinctive eye - his beloved fox hunters, racers and chasers, scruffy terriers, and loyal hounds all appear with lively personality and wit.

Snaffles (Charles Johnson Payne, 1884–1967) was one of Britain’s most celebrated sporting artists, known for his keen observation and dry humour. His depictions of hunting, polo, and military life convey both affection and authenticity, appealing to sportsmen and collectors alike. Four-Legged Friends and Acquaintances stands among his most personal works, reflecting a lifetime’s familiarity with the animals.
