A Chestnut Horse in a Field
About the Item
Abraham COOPER
Canvas Size: 28 x 36" (70 x 90cm)
Outside Frame Size: 38 x 46" (95 x 115cm)
A fantastic example of Cooper's work. A piece on a grand scale suitable for any keen sporting enthusiasts wall. The beautifully drawn horse painted in tandem with the hound creates a wonderful bond and atmosphere. The figures in the background painted in red give great depth and fabulous punctuations of colour. It is not clearly signed but this is not uncommon with Cooper's work.
1787 – 1868
One of the best known of English Sporting artists from the first half of the 19th Century, he was largely self-taught and received a great deal of encouragement from the well-known sporting artist Benjamin Marshall.
He was largely known for his horses but did paint some dog portraits. His attention to detail and high finish and naturalist colouring characterises his works. Several well-known artists studied under him, including Frederick Herring and William Barraud.
He was elected to the Royal Academy in 1817, where he was known as ‘Horse’ Cooper and exhibited there from 1812 until his death with a total of 332 paintings.
