Pair of 19th Century British Equestrian Oil Paintings
Located in London, GB
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...

Provenance: T Richardson & Co, Piccadilly, London
A wonderful sporting horse portrait by Alfred Wheeler of the racehorse Diamond Jubilee with Jockey Up. A bay stallion is depicted standing side on in a landscape, most likely Newmarket Heath, with another racehorse and jockey in the distance. The horse’s head is slightly turned towards the viewer to reveal a white diamond shape mark on his forehead running into a line down his face. On his lower forelegs can be seen leg wraps which were used during training and exercise. Research has identified the jockey as being Herbert Jones...
