Notes: "(Hardy)…will win further fame by his Saxon Wolf-Hunters returning with their tribute of wolves-heads. Mr. Heywood Hardy illustrates, on a canvas over five feet long, an incident common enough, doubtless in the days of King Edgar, who, bent on exterminating the beasts from these islands, demanded a yearly tribute of wolves-heads…the whole scene, vigorous in action, novel, and admirably painted, must make its mark."
