Philip Reinagle (1749–1833) was a prominent English painter known for his detailed and lifelike depictions of animals, birds, and landscapes. One of his notable works, "After Snipe," exemplifies his skill in capturing the essence of wildlife and the natural environment. Reinagle, originally trained under Allan Ramsay, initially focused on portrait painting but later shifted his attention to animal and sporting art, where he found significant acclaim.

"After Snipe" is a quintessential example of Reinagle's ability to blend realism with artistic finesse. The painting portrays a hunting scene, a common subject in Reinagle's oeuvre, reflecting the 18th-century British aristocracy's passion for hunting and the outdoors. The composition typically features a hunter with his dog, having successfully hunted snipe, a type of wading bird known for its elusive nature and challenging flight patterns. Reinagle's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the lifelike rendering of the birds, the textured fur of the hunting dog, and the lush, atmospheric landscape that serves as the backdrop.

Reinagle's work is characterized by its precise anatomical accuracy and dynamic compositions, which bring a sense of movement and vitality to the scenes he depicts. His ability to convey the textures of feathers, fur, and foliage demonstrates his deep observation and understanding of the natural world. "After Snipe" not only showcases Reinagle's technical prowess but also provides insight into the cultural and social practices of his time, particularly the leisure activities of the British gentry.

The painting is part of a broader tradition of sporting art that gained popularity in Britain during the 18th and 19th centuries. Reinagle's contributions to this genre have cemented his reputation as one of the leading animal and sporting artists of his era. "After Snipe" remains a testament to his enduring legacy and his ability to capture the beauty and excitement of the hunt.
