A lovely sporting animal painting of fox terrier puppies, by Valentine Thomas Garland. Three fox terrier puppies are depicted nestled in a black riding hat which rests on a scarlet hunting jacket. In the background to the right, part of a saddle can also be made out. Underneath the hat the ends of a silver mounted riding crop and brass hunting bugle are shown sticking out. A riding stirrup can also be seen in the lower foreground and bears the artist’s signature.
This painting was exhibited at the Bristol Art Gallery loan exhibition of April 1906, no.182 and at the time was owned by Arthur Robinson Esquire (1855-1914). Dogs were a favourite subject of Garland’s and he was particularly fond of painting fox terriers, as seen in this fine example. Arthur Robinson was born in Clifton, Bristol in 1855 and lived at Lawrence Weston, Henbury, near Bristol. In 1844, His father Elisha Smith Robinson founded ES
A Robinson Ltd, a paper, printing and packaging company based in Bristol. After the death of his father in 1885, Arthur and his brother Edward took over the business.
Valentine Thomas Garland or Thomas Valentine Garland was born in Basingstoke in 1845 the son of the artist William Garland (1817-1882) and his wife Mary. He was named William Thomas at birth but went by the name of Thomas or Tom from an early age. By 1861, the family had moved to Winchester living at 27 Eastgate Street, later living at City Road in nearby Weeke. He was initially taught art by his father whose influence can be seen in his style and subject matter. In 1871 he entered the Royal Academy School where he completed his artistic training.
Garland made his debut at the Royal Academy in 1868, continuing to exhibit there until 1903. He also exhibited at the Suffolk Street Galleries and at the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours. He specialised in paintings of animals; however became best known for his appealing portraits of dogs, such as this fine example. He continued residing in Weeke where he set up a studio in North Walls. From 1873, he adopted the name of Valentine to sign his work, perhaps to distinguish himself from his father; initially using T Valentine Garland and later Valentine T Garland. By 1891, he had established himself as an artist, officially using his adopted name and also started teaching art.
He was one of the founders of the Winchester Art Society of which he was a member and was also on the hanging committee for the society. He also became a member of the Dudley Gallery in Piccadilly where he also exhibited. In 1898 he married Katherine Jane Shalders at Southampton, remaining in Weeke with his wife until 1902 when they moved to Rose Cottage in Kings Worthy. He died at his home in Kings Worthy on 29 October, 1914 and was buried at Kings Worthy cemetery.
His paintings have remained highly popular amongst collectors and a number of his works are held in public collections including the Usher Gallery and the Hampshire Cultural Trust Headquarters in Winchester.
Presentation: The painting is housed in a new, English made gilt frame which is in excellent condition. The reverse bears an old exhibition label.
Condition: As with all of our original antique oil paintings, this work is offered in ready to hang gallery condition, having been professionally cleaned, restored and revarnished.
