James Loder of Bath, born in 1784, was a notable British artist celebrated for his exquisite depictions of horses and equestrian scenes. His life and career were intertwined with the flourishing equestrian culture of 18th and 19th century England, where horses played a central role in transportation, leisure, and sport.
Loder was born into a family with artistic inclinations, and from a young age, he showed a keen interest in drawing and painting. His early years were spent honing his skills, and he quickly developed a fascination with horses, captivated by their grace, power, and beauty.
In pursuit of his artistic passion, Loder moved to Bath, a city renowned for its artistic community and vibrant social scene. Bath provided him with ample inspiration, as it was frequented by horse enthusiasts, aristocrats, and sporting elites. Here, Loder immersed himself in the world of equestrianism, observing horses in various settings, from racing tracks to country estates.
Loder's artistic talent soon gained recognition, and he established himself as a prominent equestrian artist. His paintings captured the essence of the horse, portraying them with remarkable accuracy and sensitivity. He had a unique ability to convey the movement, anatomy, and spirit of his subjects, earning him widespread acclaim among art connoisseurs and horse enthusiasts alike.
Throughout his career, Loder exhibited his works at prestigious venues, including the Royal Academy in London and the Bath Society of Artists. His paintings were sought after by collectors, nobility, and prominent figures of his time.
Beyond his artistic pursuits, Loder was known for his affable personality and love for horses. He enjoyed participating in equestrian events, socializing with fellow artists and patrons, and sharing his passion for equine art with others.
James Loder's legacy endures through his timeless paintings, which continue to captivate viewers with their beauty and evocative portrayal of horses. His contributions to equestrian art have left an indelible mark on the genre, inspiring generations of artists and admirers to appreciate the majesty of the horse through the medium of art.

- 19th Century exhibition size landscape oil painting of Sheep on a cliffBy Charles Jones (b.1836)Located in Moreton-In-Marsh, GloucestershireCharles Jones British, (1836-1892) Sheep Resting Oil on canvas, signed with monogram & dated 1877, further inscribed verso Image size: 35 inches x 59 inches Size including frame: 47 inches x 71 inches Exhibition Size Painting A fantastic exhibition sized landscape painting of sheep on a cliff top by the coast by Charles ‘Sheep’ Jones. At the time he produced this painting, Jones was living at Heathercroft, Balham Hill in London. Given the size and quality of the work it was most likely an exhibition piece. The topography and landscape suggest that this is the Dorset coast, one of his favourite places to paint. Charles Jones was an animal painter who was born in Stepney, London in 1836. He was the son of the artist Samuel John Egbert Jones (1797-1861) and Dinah Jones. He lived with his parents and 9 siblings in Mile End and was a pupil of his father. In September 1859, he married Frances Rosalinda Downe, who was born in America. His son Arthur Bertram Loud (1863-1930) also became an artist. They lived at 12 Hayes Place, Lisson Grove from where he made his debut in London at the Royal Academy in 1861. He also exhibited at the British Institution, Suffolk Street, New Watercolour Society, Royal Institute of Oil Painters and the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours. By 1867, he had become a successful artist and they had moved to 7 Paragon Place, Brixton Hill. From 1874 he lived at Heathercroft, Balham Hill where he spent the rest of his life. Jones became well known for specialising in paintings of sheep, cattle and deer in landscape settings. He spent his time travelling around visiting areas such as Devon, Dorset, Kent, Sussex and the Highlands. However, it is for his skilful painting of sheep that he is perhaps best known, and for which earned him the nickname of ‘Sheep’ Jones. As well as the major London galleries, he also exhibited provincially at various locations including: the Royal Cambrian Academy where he was elected a member in 1886, the Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts, Manchester City Art Gallery, Royal Hibernian Academy, Royal Society of British Artists, Birmingham and the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool. Some of the smaller more intimate galleries he exhibited at were Arthur Tooth & Sons and Thomas...Category
