William Thornley was a painter of coastal scenes whose work is very similar to Hubert and Charles Thornley, who may have been members of the same family. He painted scenes of genre, architecture, and landscapes as well. A number of the landscapes were of Belgium, Holland, Italy, and Norway. However, it is for his seascapes that he is best remembered. Thornley’s works are beautifully detailed and show a masterful understanding of the moods of both weather and sea. They are often small in size and put together with fine detail and great artistic merit. Thornley’s fishing scenes are spirited and similar in style to those of “Jock” Wilson, and are often painted in pairs. Thornley’s works have always been popular when they appear on the art market. He was believed to have first exhibited marines at the Royal Academy in 1859 from an address in Paddington, London and also at the British Institution from 1861 until it closed in 1867. He continued to exhibit at the Royal Academy until 1898. Thornley also exhibited at the Paris Salon and the Salon of French Artists, receiving an honorable mention in 1881 and a third-place medal in 1888. William Thornley also went by the names Georges William and William...

Francis Mabel Hollams (1877–1963) The Farrier’s Visit, circa 1925 Oil on canvas, monogrammed lower right. Presented in its original gilt frame. Francis Mabel Hollams was one of Britain’s most accomplished painters of horses and domestic animals during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A gifted sporting artist, she studied under the distinguished equestrian painter Lucy Kemp-Welch and went on to establish a successful career exhibiting at London’s foremost institutions, including the Royal Academy, the Royal Institute of Oil Painters, the Royal Society of British Artists and the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. Her paintings are celebrated for their exceptional draughtsmanship, sensitive observation and genuine understanding of animal character, qualities that have secured her place among the finest female sporting artists of her generation. The Farrier’s Visit beautifully encapsulates the quiet rhythms of rural England during the years when the working horse remained indispensable to everyday agricultural life. Hollams depicts a magnificent grey Shire horse standing patiently outside a traditional brick stable as the village farrier carefully replaces one of its shoes. The scene is entirely unforced and deeply authentic, celebrating the mutual trust between horse and craftsman, a relationship forged through generations of skilled husbandry. The monumental presence of the Shire horse dominates the composition, yet Hollams avoids sentimentality, instead conveying its immense strength through calm composure and gentle dignity. Every detail, from the worn leather harness to the weathered stable doors and simple blacksmith’s tools...
