George Paice Art

British, 1854-1925
George Paice (1854–1925) was an accomplished English artist celebrated for his exquisite equestrian and animal paintings. Born in Pimlico, London, Paice demonstrated an early affinity for art and attended prestigious institutions such as the Royal Academy of Arts, where he honed his technical skills and refined his distinctive style. Paice specialized in painting horses, dogs, and other animals, often commissioned by wealthy patrons, landowners, and aristocrats to immortalize their prized animals on canvas. His works are characterized by their lifelike detail, elegant composition, and an ability to capture the personality and vitality of his subjects. Paice's mastery of texture and anatomy enabled him to produce vivid and emotive representations of animals, making his portraits cherished heirlooms. While his primary focus was on animals, Paice also painted rural landscapes and hunting scenes, offering glimpses into the pastoral life of the late Victorian and Edwardian eras. His art was admired for its traditional aesthetic and timeless appeal, standing apart from the emerging modernist movements of his time. Paice's paintings remain highly sought after by collectors and are frequently found in country houses, galleries, and private collections. His work preserves a legacy of Britain's equestrian culture and rural heritage, continuing to resonate with audiences who appreciate classic animal portraiture.

Located in Woodbury, CT

GEORGE PAICE Ypsilanti, Winner of the Great Jubilee Handicap at Kempton Park Oil on canvas, dated 1904 Signed lower left Presented in a decorative gilt frame This accomplished late nineteenth-century British sporting portrait by George Paice depicts the celebrated racehorse Ypsilanti, winner of the Great Jubilee Handicap at Kempton Park. Painted and dated 1894, the work records the successful thoroughbred standing in a stable interior. Ypsilanti is shown in full profile facing left, standing alert yet composed upon a straw-covered stable floor. The horse’s rich bay coat is carefully modelled with deep brown and chestnut tones, enlivened by cool highlights along the neck, back and muscular hindquarters. The upright ears, attentive eye and finely drawn head convey an intelligent and spirited character. A blue-grey horse blanket is draped over the partition behind the animal, introducing a subtle note of colour and reinforcing the stable setting. The pale walls and restrained interior provide a quiet backdrop, allowing the horse’s elegant outline and athletic proportions to dominate the composition. Particular attention has been given to Ypsilanti’s conformation. The long neck, deep chest, powerful hindquarters and slender legs are described with the anatomical understanding expected of an experienced equestrian painter. Paice combines precise observation with a direct and decorative approach, presenting the horse both as an individual animal and as a distinguished winner on the racecourse. George Paice (1854–1925) was a British painter best known for his portraits of horses, dogs and other sporting subjects. Working during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, he developed a reputation for characterful and carefully observed animal portraits. His paintings frequently depict named racehorses, hunters and family animals within stable, landscape or domestic settings. The work is painted in oil on canvas and is signed and dated by Paice at the lower left. The inscription identifies the horse as Ypsilanti, winner of the Great Jubilee Handicap at Kempton Park, giving the portrait an important connection with British racing history. The painting is presented in a decorative gilt frame with broad moulded corners and a foliate inner border. Its warm, time-softened finish complements the bay colouring of the horse and provides an appropriately substantial setting for the composition. An attractive combination of equestrian portraiture and British racing history, this work would make a distinctive addition to a collection of sporting art, racehorse paintings...

Pair of 19th century British equestrian oil paintings British, 19th Century Boards: Height 25cm, width 32cm Frames: Height 35cm, width 42cm, depth 4cm This attractive pair of 19th-century oil paintings beautifully captures the elegance and charm of Victorian sporting art. Rendered with fine detail and vibrant hues, the paintings are enhanced by their original wooden frames and equal dimensions, making them ideal for display as a complementary set. Each artwork features a 19th-century racehorse alongside its jockey, portrayed with striking use of colour and a keen eye for character. In the first composition, a chestnut horse is shown being led across an open landscape by a gentleman in stylish rural dress, likely the owner. The jockey, seated confidently atop the animal, wears vivid blue silks. The lower right corner bears a faint signature, and the reverse of the canvas includes indistinct handwritten text, presumably of the horse’s name. The second painting shows another similarly hued racehorse, this time in profile, with its jockey dressed in bold yellow silks and a burgundy riding cap. The back of this canvas is clearly marked with the name ‘Red Robin’. Rich in colour and full of period charm, this matched pair of antique equestrian paintings would appeal to collectors of horse racing...

"Flexible" by George Paice (1854-1925) British signed and dated 1891 titled oil painting on artists board, 8.75 x 12 inches framed condition: overall very pleasing and good provenance: from a collection in the south of England George Paice (British 1854-1925), came from a wealthy family and although not a horseman himself, he had a keen and sensitive equine eye and had a personal interest in racing. He was fairly prolific during his lifetime and made a very good living from private commission work and so consequently did not feel the need to show his work much at public exhibitions. He exhibited seven times at the Royal Academy with titles such as “Haunt of the Moorhen”, “Tis weary waiting here” and “Well earned repose” and four times at the Royal Society of British Artists including one titled “Meditation”. This subject matter is different from the majority of his work known today. He received a lot of commission work to paint horses and dogs and in this he was very competent in depicting his subject matter. One of his patrons was Lady Margaret Cecil. Besides his small format horse and dog portraiture for which he is best known today, Paice produced a small number of large, fine point-to-point scenes, one of which was painted for the Officer`s Mess of the Royal Scots Greys...
