About the Item

Clydesdale Horses Farmer Ploughing a Golden Autumn Field in Rural Countryside by British Artist Art measures 20 x 16 inches Frame measures 23 x 19 inches (Presented in a restored distressed shabby-chic vintage golden frame) This evocative rural scene captures the quiet strength and dignity of traditional farming life. Two powerful Clydesdale horses, richly harnessed in polished brass and leather, pull the plough with steady determination as the farmer guides them through the golden field. His rolled sleeves and weathered expression reflect a deep connection to the land - a partnership between man, horse, and earth that defines a fading era. The warm autumnal palette of ochres, russets, and soft blues gives the painting a nostalgic glow, beautifully balancing realism and sentiment. The brushwork is confident and fluid, conveying both movement and atmosphere beneath a pale, cloud-streaked sky. Signed D. Long in the lower right, this work is believed to have been painted circa 1978. It stands within the proud tradition of 20th-century rural genre painting, celebrating the craftsmanship and quiet heroism of working the land before the mechanised age.

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...
