Parted Friends by G. Halse, from the Royal Academy Exhibition of last year, 1874. Sculpture of a boy with his dead pet. 'The group by Mr. Halse which we have engraved has a meaning too simple, direct, and well expressed to require comment. Many and pleasant, doubtless, were the associations of the two friends; many were the joyous rambles, the playful frolics, the exciting escapades which they enjoyed in company. Death has now taken one, and, be sure, not the least faithful, of the friends; but affection is not wanting in the survivor, and many another sad dog will find no mourner so sincere'. From the Fine Art Supplement to the "Illustrated London News", 1874.
