介绍（中）	查尔斯·莱斯利去世后，《伦敦新闻画报》向他发表了一篇长篇纪念文章，由这幅木版画插图。相关文字将这位在英国取得职业成功的美国出生的艺术家描述为"我们所有画家中最有个性和最彻底的英国人"。尽管莱斯利以回应知名戏剧和文学作品而闻名，但该期刊挑选了这一类型主题，以体现艺术家捕捉"自然真理和美"的能力。《孩子们在马上玩耍》被称赞为"微妙而简单"，使用了"最简单和最熟悉的材料......[创造]一种珍贵的东西，它将传达一种新的印象，赋予一种新的乐趣 - 在这种情况下迫使我们与那些小家伙共鸣并几乎分享他们的乐趣。威廉·卢森·托马斯（William Luson Thomas）是一位领先的木雕师，他被选中制作版画。
介绍（英）	After the death of Charles Leslie the "Illustrated London News" honored him with a long commemorative article, illustrated by this wood engraving. A related text describes the American-born artist who achieved professional success in England as "the most individual and thoroughly English, perhaps of all our painters." Although Leslie was known for works that responded to well-known drama and literature, the periodical singled out this genre subject to embody the artist's ability to capture "natural truth and beauty." "Children Playing at Horses" is praised for a "subtlety and simplicity" that uses the "simplest and most familiar materials...[to] create a precious something which shall convey a new impression, impart a new pleasure--compelling us in this instance to sympatize with and almost share the fun of those little folks." William Luson Thomas, a leading wood engraver, was chosen to make the print.
