William Henry Crome Paintings

British, 1806-1873

William Henry Crome was born in Norwich on October 22, 1806. He was the third son of John Crome, one of the founders of the Norwich school. Crome was very unfortunate in losing his father at the early age of 15. Whilst John Berney, his older brother, had sheltered under his father’s wing, Crome had to make his way and this he commenced to do with good effect. In 1826, Crome was sufficiently competent to exhibit a painting entitled A View at Costessey, Norfolk at the British institution. The acceptance of the exhibit must have spurred him on. Crome married Mary Ann Steel. At the age of 24, Crome was beginning to look towards one of the Old Masters, Claude Lorraine, for influence. This influence can be identified in many of his Scottish scenes painted around 1830. Crome traveled to the continent and his visit is recorded by an inscription on a painting, which reads, Near Aix La Chappelle, Brussels in 1854. Crome died in 1873.

English 19th century English Farm with shire Clydesdale horses in a landscape
By John Frederick Herring Sr.
Located in Woodbury, CT
English School Farmyard Scene with Horses and Goat Oil on panel, unsigned The Circle of John Frederick Herring Sr. Circa 1880 Presented in a later gilt and painted frame This finely rendered 19th-century English farmyard scene captures the quiet dignity of rural life, with a group of three horses—white, chestnut, and black—gathered beneath a tree in the warm light of late afternoon. A small goat stands to one side near a rustic stable, adding a note of charming domesticity to the composition. The surrounding landscape, with its distant hills and careful play of shadow and cloud, speaks to the artist’s sensitivity to atmosphere and detail. Though unsigned, the painting is executed in a manner closely aligned with the work of John Frederick Herring Senior, one of Britain’s most celebrated animal painters of the Victorian era. The careful modelling of the horses, their distinctive postures and anatomy, and the tranquil farm setting are all hallmarks of Herring’s influence. Painted in oils on a wooden panel, the surface retains a fine, even gloss and a warm palette typical of the period. The composition is both balanced and lyrical: the interplay of form and gesture among the animals invites the viewer into a moment of repose between work and activity, emblematic of Victorian ideals of harmony between man, beast, and the land. A delightful example of 19th-century English rural painting...
