Beschreibung
A small original watercolour painting by Henry Alken. The small image 3.5 x 6 inches + the Victorian gold mount and ornate gesso & wooden frame again Georgian or Victorian and the mount has an arch and bevelled edge. There is some age spots to areas in the white top and bottom, the mount has the name "H. Alken" written below the image, the frame and backing has NOT been removed and will be sold in its original untouched state. *NOTE: The greatest exponent of equestrian paintings and engravings of the Georgian & early Victorian era, it depicts a group of 4 red-jacketed English horse riders in about to canter away with a hedgerow and faint tree line. The horses positions and stances are typical of Alken with the left foreleg raised, the figures are lightly detailed, but painted by an artist who knows riding and positions. It has never been out of its frame and why (as it isn't signed) would anyone attribute such a simple watercolour sketch as by Alken when it wasn't? Perhaps done towards the end of his life when he fell on hard times? Sold as By Henry Alken [1785-1851]. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers A942
