About the Item
Known to his contemporaries as “Fred,” the junior Herring painted farm and equestrian scenes similar in subject matter and style to those of his father. His paintings are chiefly distinguished from those of J. F. senior by the intricate detail put into the appearance of straw and grass, such that the overall painting develops a “worrying appearance.”
Signed. Oil on Canvas.

John Frederick Herring Jr
John Frederick Herring Jr. was taught by his father, the eminent early 19th century artist J.F. Herring Sr. (1795-1865) who was official Animal Painter to Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent. Like Herring Sr., he became a highly successful painter of sporting and animal subjects which were particularly popular with the English aristocracy. The current work is a homage to his father’s famous subject picture of 1850, and possibly commissioned by a patron who had been unable to secure Herring Senior’s original. Between 1860 and 1875 J.F. Herring Jr. exhibited at the Royal Academy, the British Institution, and the Royal Society of British Artists.
