"The Waterloo Coursing Meeting; The Caledonian Coursing Meeting" are two notable works by Samuel William II Reynolds, an esteemed British engraver and painter of the 19th century. Samuel William II Reynolds, born in 1794, was the son of the prominent mezzotint engraver Samuel William Reynolds. Following in his father's footsteps, Reynolds the younger became known for his skillful engravings and contributions to the art of printmaking.

These works, "The Waterloo Coursing Meeting" and "The Caledonian Coursing Meeting," capture the essence of coursing, a popular sport in the 19th century where greyhounds chased hares. The sport was a significant social event, often attended by the aristocracy and gentry, and these meetings were occasions for socializing and displaying one's status. Reynolds' engravings are celebrated for their detailed and dynamic portrayal of these events, providing a glimpse into the social and cultural fabric of the time.

Reynolds' technique in these works showcases his mastery of mezzotint, a printmaking process that allows for the creation of rich, tonal images. His attention to detail and ability to convey movement and atmosphere make these engravings stand out. The compositions are meticulously arranged, capturing the excitement and elegance of the coursing meetings, with finely rendered figures and landscapes that bring the scenes to life.

"The Waterloo Coursing Meeting" and "The Caledonian Coursing Meeting" are not only significant for their artistic merit but also for their historical value. They offer insights into the leisure activities and social customs of the 19th-century British elite. Through these works, Reynolds has immortalized a pastime that was an integral part of the cultural landscape of his time.

These engravings are part of Reynolds' broader oeuvre, which includes portraits, landscapes, and genre scenes. His works are held in high regard and can be found in various collections, including those of major museums and galleries. Samuel William II Reynolds' contributions to the art of engraving have left a lasting legacy, and "The Waterloo Coursing Meeting" and "The Caledonian Coursing Meeting" are exemplary of his skill and artistry.
