About the Item
This 20th century oil painting of mare and two foals is set in an idyllic landscape with mature old tree, stone well and cottage in the background; by Robert Alexander, signed and dated indistinctly, possibly 1937/9. Fine work, in the style of animal portraiture in an earlier Scottish/British style.
Scottish artist Robert Alexander (1840-1923) had a son, Robert, who would have studied but did not pursue painting full time. A second son did become a professional painter. It is possible this is by the younger son Robert, as it is a fine painting but of a later period than the father. The elder Robert Alexander was known for his paintings of animals, primarily horses and dogs.
The mare stands with one of her foals, and the second foal lies beside the stone well. It is a picturesque and tranquil pastoral scene.
Presented in wooden gilt frame, oil paint on an older board, the painting is in overall excellent condition.
The frame shows wear and one small missing piece, but this does little to detract from the overall presentation. About 20" high and 24" wide in the frame, this is a good size for most rooms.
Charming work by a gifted artist. Ready to hang!

Late 19th/early 20th century oil on canvas painting in the manner of Abraham Hulk the Younger (1851-1922), this painting was acquired by Saltire Gallerie with a larger painting signed by Hulk the Younger, (just SOLD).

Village Scene
Located in Hillsborough, NC
Fine 19th century oil painting of a bustling Austrian/Germanic village with horse, rider and various figures outside an Inn, attributed to Arthur Georg Ramberg (1819-1879), well known for figurative genre paintings. The rider is carrying a bugle, apparently announcing news to the people; men are sitting by the table drinking, one with a raised stein. Women walking by stop to listen, a man carrying a sack has stopped to watch the rider, people are in the Inn doorway, and one is looking out the window. Children pause their playing. The scene is under a large tree beside the Inn; a whole community waiting for news.
There is a great deal of detail in the scene, tree and Inn house...

"A River Landscape with Wild Horses", Victorian original, oil on canvas
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. Best known for his equine art, of the same character as those of the elder Herring, including "The Home Farm," "The Homestead," "The Farm-Yard," etc.John F. 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. John Herring, Jr. continued painting in the tradition of his father, the sporting and animal pictures...
