Myslivecká Latina: cyklus rozmarných obrázků (Hunting Latin: a series of whimsical images) is dedicated ‘všem přátelům zelené krve’ (to all my friends with green blood). Another of Štika’s themed albums, it was designed to appeal to the Czech rural pursuits aficionado.

The titles of the drawings are:
     Hodím si ji přes rameno a pospíchám k lesu (I throw it over my shoulder and hurry to the forest)
     Nekdy si pán sám ‘staví’ a pes ‘honí’ (Sometimes the master ‘builds’ and the dog ‘follows’)
     Ohledávání nory (Looking for a hole)
     Sázení mladé kultůry (Planting new growth)
     Pytlák (The poacher)
     Probírka mlází (Checking for youthfulness)
     Záraz (The impact)

We are very grateful to Hans-Jürgen Döpp for these images; Hans-Jürgen, the compiler of many books on erotic art, curates the Venusberg online gallery and bookshop which you can find here.
