About the Item
George Wright (1860–1944) was a British painter renowned for his equestrian art, particularly hunting and coaching scenes. Born in Leeds, England, he was the eldest of seven children in a family where five siblings pursued careers in art.
Wright's early works, often painted "en grisaille," suggest involvement in illustration. He collaborated with his brother Gilbert on sporting and coaching scenes for calendars. Throughout his career, Wright exhibited at prestigious venues, including six times at the Walker Gallery and thirty-three times at the Royal Academy.
His paintings, such as "On the Scent" and "Spring Fever," showcase his mastery in capturing the dynamism of equestrian activities. Wright's work is characterized by strong, well-finished depictions of hunting and coaching scenes, reflecting his deep understanding of equestrian subjects.
In 1901, he relocated to Rugby, later moving to Oxford in 1908, and finally to Richmond, Surrey, by 1929. He spent his later years in Seaford, Sussex, where he passed away in 1944.

George Wright
Born near Leeds, England in 1860. Wright was the elder brother of Gilbert Scott Wright, with whom he worked in the early part of the twentieth century. He is believed to have worked as an illustrator early in his career. He lived in Rugby, England for a couple of years, during which period he painted polo scenes; he later lived in Oxford and in Richmond, Surrey. Upon his retirement in 1939 he moved to Seaford, Sussex. He was best known for his hunting and coaching scenes and for his horse and equestrian portraits; he also painted historical subjects, including several small works of Cavaliers. Wright died in Seaford, Sussex, England in 1942.
