A short article by Marian Hague on lace designs that depict hunting subjects. It describes two pieces owned by Needle and Bobbin Club members: a Milanese bobbin lace with hunters, dogs and birds, and a Venetian tape guipure (mezzo punto) of the second half of the seventeenth century with hunters, eagles, rabbits and lions. It also mentions related examples in published works and two Metropolitan Museum pieces, a Mechlin lace and a point d'Angleterre strip showing Diana with her dogs. Illustrated with photographs of the laces.
