William Perring Hollyer
Highland Cattle in a Mountain Glen, original oil on canvas, 19thC British

Unknown

About the Item

This is a stunning artwork entitled a ‘Landscape with Highland Cattle’. It is circa 20th Century and is an original oil on canvas painting by the English Artist William Perring Hollyner (1834-1922). Hollyer was a noted 19th/20th century painter of animals and Scottish landscape scenes. It is remarkable is that several of his children also became artists: Eva, Maud, Gregory, William Stanley and Olive. Despite his love of Scottish scenes, there is no evidence that he actually went there. But he did move around the country, bringing up some of his family in London and some in Liverpool. After returning to London, he moved to Huntingdonshire and finally retired to Faringdon in Oxfordshire.

"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...
