The works of John Frederick Herring, Sr. epitomize the British country rustic aesthetic of the mid-19th century. A painter of horses, barnyard animals, fox hunts and rural life, he began his career in Doncaster, England, painting inn signs and coach insignias. On receiving employment as a night coach driver, he devoted his spare time to painting portraits of horses for inn parlors, earning a reputation as the “artist coachman.”
His work, thus displayed, attracted the attention of local gentry, who commissioned him to paint hunters and racehorses. By 1840 he was visiting Paris on an invitation from the Duc d’Orleans, and in 1845 was appointed Animal Painter to HRH the Duchess of Kent. His first commission from Queen Victoria was soon to follow. By the end of his career the artist coachman had secured a legacy alongside Edwin Landseer as one of the greatest animal painters of his time.
Produced in 1833, The Suffolk Hunt is a four-part series consisting of Going to Cover near Herringswell, Gone Away, Full Cry and The Death.
Product Information
Expect crisp detail and vivid color from our giclée process fine art prints. We use archival pigment inks on cotton fiber paper to achieve a wide color gamut, deep blacks and beautiful tonal transitions. Unlike posters, they will not fade or yellow, but maintain their original quality for as long as you own them.How to Frame
Historical artworks were produced in whatever shapes and sizes best suited the artists and their patrons, and these rarely correspond to the proportions of modern, mass-produced frames. Most reproductions sold on the web are cropped to an arbitrary standard, compromising the integrity of the original artwork. We solve this by using accent borders to make up any differences in proportion.Framing may be as simple as inserting the print into a standard size frame with the borders showing. In many cases, our customers choose to have them matted. Borders allow space for framers to mount the print while covering little, if any, of the artwork. Our images are sized to provide desirable mat widths in common frames.
Sizes 9” x 12”, 12” x 16”, and 16” x 20” are designed to be matted in larger frames, such as 11” x 14”, 16” x 20” and 20” x 24”, respectively. Larger prints may be matted in frames of equal size, the borders corresponding to the shape of the mat. Where the artwork is unusually square or narrow, other sizes may be preferred.
If our sizing does not meet your requirements, we provide customization free of charge. Please contact us to discuss the details.
