About this work

A watercolor and pen sketch by John Leech, dated 1850, shows an elderly man in a top hat and dark coat leaning from a tree branch over a river while holding a long fishing rod. A red float sits on the water, and a handwritten caption beneath the image reads that fishing is the best sport for a retired schoolmaster.
