Note du spécialiste

A letter inserted into the album asserts that Munnings gave the six sketches included in this album to Miss Hilda Wood after having met her when training wild horses near Reading during the First World War. The first three humorous sketches depict Miss Wood on, or being thrown off, horseback. The fourth sketch shows a small terrier and the final two drawings are of Miss Wood's friend Miss Shaw, including one of her astride a rather feisty looking horse, 'Dainty'.
