"Nimrod" was the pseudonym of the prolific sports writer Charles James Apperley (1778-1843), who is credited with being the first gentleman hunting correspondent and sports journalist. Writing at first under various pseudonyms (Acastus, Eques, and A), he published his first article for "The Sporting Magazine" as Nimrod in January 1822 and subsequently usually used that nom de plume. The plate is not published with the book. It depicts a racehorse. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 46967B
