"Out Shooting: Duck Flighting, Shooting Over Pointers, Walked Upwoodcock, And Pheasant Shooting" is a collection of artworks by Henry Thomas Alken, an English painter and engraver primarily known for his hunting, sporting and coaching scenes. Born on October 12, 1785, Alken's work became synonymous with British field sports, capturing the essence of 19th-century aristocratic pursuits with a particular focus on the drama and tradition of hunting and shooting.

This series of illustrations by Alken delves into various forms of shooting, a popular sport and pastime among the British gentry of the time. Each scene in the collection is meticulously crafted to showcase different aspects of the shooting experience. "Duck Flighting" likely depicts the evening flight of ducks, which sportsmen would try to intercept; "Shooting Over Pointers" illustrates the use of pointer dogs to find and retrieve game; "Walked Upwoodcock" might capture the method of walking up to woodcocks in their habitat for a close-range shot; and "Pheasant Shooting" portrays the pursuit of pheasants, which was and remains a quintessential British field sport.

Alken's work is characterized by its vibrant depiction of the British countryside, the detailed portrayal of the participants and their attire, and the dynamic representation of the sporting action. His ability to convey movement and the excitement of the hunt has made his pieces enduring records of rural sporting life. "Out Shooting" is a testament to Alken's skill in illustrating the nuances of field sports and contributes to our understanding of the cultural history of shooting as a leisure activity in the 19th century.

The collection is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical value, providing insight into the social customs and leisure activities of the British upper classes during this period. Alken's works are held in high regard by collectors of sporting art and are often sought after for their historical authenticity and attention to detail.

As an artist, Henry Thomas Alken left a lasting legacy through his prolific output of sporting prints and paintings, influencing subsequent generations of sporting artists. "Out Shooting" remains an important part of this legacy, capturing the spirit of an era where field sports were a defining element of British rural life.
