About the Item

George William Horlor (British 1819-1899) George William Horlor was born in Bath around 1819. He married Mary Cook on 15 March 1845 and by 1851 was living in Cheltenham where he had established himself as an artist. It was around this time that he began producing sporting paintings often set in a Highland landscape. Horlor developed a distinctive painting style, characterized by a quick application of paint, to create soft, atmospheric effects. He exhibited at several of the major galleries including the British Institution and the Suffolk Galleries from 1849-1891 as well as at the Royal Academy from 1854 where he exhibited 19 paintings over the years. One of his paintings 'A Day's Sport' was praised in the Art Journal review of the Royal Academy exhibition of 1855. He died in South Stoneham, Southampton in 1899. Examples of his work are held by various public collections including the Wilson Gallery, Wednesbury Museum & Art Gallery, Stockport Heritage Services and the Royal Collection at Osborne House.

By John Frederick Herring Jr
Located in Naples, Florida
This is an original unique oil painting by the artist. Born into an artistic family in Doncaster, England during 1820.

Herring, Jr. was born in Doncaster, South Yorkshire c.1820, to the well-known 19th-century artist John Frederick Herring, Sr. (1795-1865), who at the time, was considered one of England's great Sporting and Equestrian artists, patronized by the English aristocracy. The father's mastery of the brush, and popularity with the nobility, served his son, Herring, Jr., well. Early on, John, Jr. was exposed to fine painting and wealthy patrons. Recent reference books state that Herring, Sr.'s first child was named "John Frederick Herring, Jr." and was born on June 21, 1815. John Herring, Jr. developed a love for painting, a passion also shared by his brothers Charles and Benjamin. Three of the four brothers became artists, painting in the same style as their father, often collaborating on a single painting. In the years after 1836, Herring, Sr., feeling threatened by the teenage John Herring, Jr.'s ability and growing popularity, began incorporating the tag "SR" at the end of his signature.
