Scope and Content: Numerous studies, pencil sketches, and watercolour paintings of farm animals (sheep, goats, cows, horses, dogs), horse riding and hunting scenes, landscapes, and some people. Some of the images are possibly woodcuts, while others appear to have been cut from publications. Most are not signed by the artist, but it appears that some were created by Henry Popham Tenison MacCarthy, while a small number are dated 1884-1886, so were likely created by Florence Strachan MacCarthy.
