"Partridge Shooting; Pheasant Shooting; Wild Duck Shooting; Grouse Shooting" is a series of four aquatint engravings by the English painter and engraver Henry Thomas Alken (1785–1851). Created in the early 19th century, these works depict various forms of game bird hunting, which were popular sports among the British gentry and aristocracy of the time. Alken was renowned for his depictions of sporting and hunting scenes, which captured both the dynamism of the hunt and the pastoral beauty of the British countryside.

Each print in the series focuses on a different type of bird and hunting method, reflecting the specific techniques and traditions associated with hunting partridges, pheasants, wild ducks, and grouse. The images are characterized by their attention to detail, from the portrayal of the hunters, their attire, and their firearms, to the rendering of the landscape and the birds in flight or at rest.

Alken's work provides a valuable historical record of early 19th-century British field sports, showcasing the social aspects of hunting as well as its role in rural life. The series is also significant for its artistic merit, demonstrating Alken's skill in capturing movement and atmosphere. His ability to convey the excitement and immediacy of the hunt has made these engravings enduring examples of sporting art.

The "Partridge Shooting; Pheasant Shooting; Wild Duck Shooting; Grouse Shooting" series is often sought after by collectors of sporting art and remains an important part of Alken's artistic legacy. The engravings not only reflect the sporting culture of the period but also contribute to the broader understanding of British social history and the evolution of field sports.
