C19 Hunter and Hunting Dogs, gun cocked to shoot, Large Victorian Oil Painting

mid 19th century

About the Item

This is a large Oil Painting on Canvas, it came from a Country Estate in the UK. It is housed in its original restored gilt sporting frame. The painting is not only really well executed but it has a definite touch of humour shining through! The Hunter waits poised for his prey to come into his sights, he stills the hounds that are looking on enthusiastically and the rest we can only guess!! Given that there are dead birds in the foreground and in his pocket, we can assume he does indeed have some degree of success! A wonderful period piece full of wit and charm.

  • Fisherman and Children on the Beach sorting the catch
    By John Robertson Reid
    Located in ludlow, GB
    ​ JOHN ROBERTSON REID RBA, ROI, RI ​ British 1851 – 1926 “Harvest of the Sea” Oil on canvas, Signed and Framed. John Robertson Reid was born in Edinburgh and studied at the Royal Scottish Academy schools before moving to Cornwall and later London. He became interested in the social-realist movement; probably influenced by Bastien-Lepage and in 1879 his “Toil and Pleasure” was hung in the Royal Academy and bought by the Chantrey Bequest. He continued to exhibit at the Royal Academy and at the Royal Society of British Artists and also the Royal Institute, he was a member of all three Institutes. Reid’s subjects – field workers, humble people – were similar to those of Bastien-Lepage, but his handling of the paint was more dynamic and reflected his training at the Scottish Academy under Chalmers and McTaggart. He was also a good colourist, and some of his coastal scenes with fishermen and women in the foreground, have rich blues and greens, of which ours is a typical example. Reid was also a fine watercolourist in a breezy style similar to that of David Cox. Not all his work was about hard work he also painted rural people at rest or playing cricket and was always capable of brilliant work; his Venetian...
