Some of the most popular images for children were termed puzzle pictures, scenes in which viewers could find hidden images. This work contains a fox, horse, lamb, wild boar and faces of men and women disguised throughout the landscape. The work is one of only a few Currier & Ives prints that show the now-extinct passenger pigeon
