John Ferneley Junior Art

British, 1815-1862

Born in Melton Mowbray 1815 and died in Leeds 1862 He was the eldest son of John Ferneley Senior, and brother to Claude Lorraine Ferneley but little else is known about his life except that he worked in Manchester, York, and died in Leeds. His work is often confused with that of his father. It is also believed that both father and son collaborated on many pictures, John Jnr. tended to sign his paintings John Ferneley whilst his father signed then J. Ferneley. But John Jnr would also sign his paintings in heavy black paint and would add either York or Jnr and sometimes both. It is likely that he received some of his earliest training with his father in the creation of the plates for the famous color print series Count Sandor's Hunting Exploits in Leicestershire. Out of the two brothers, he was probably the most confident as he tackled large composition pieces both military and hunting. He died a bachelor in Manchester in 1862

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).

Stabled Horses
By John Ferneley Junior
Located in Stoke, Hampshire
John Ferneley Jnr Stabled horses Oil on canvas Canvas Size - 20 x 24 in Framed Size - 27 x 31 in Born in about 1815 at Melton Mowbray, he was the eldest son of the important sporting artist John E Ferneley. The latters other two children, Claude Lorraine and Sarah, were also artists. He spent his early life at Elgin Lodge and his father was a major influence on his artistic development and was in all probability his sole teacher. His father took him on trips to London and in 1832 to Durham and York where the younger Ferneley later settled in about 1839, probably because of the large number of patrons in the area. His first work, of a Whipping-in, was engraved and published in the New Sporting Magazine in May 1833 and was followed in the next year by an engraving of a Hunter. John E Ferneley had established a significant career as an equestrian artist in the old English tradition largely due to being a pupil of Ben...
