W.S. Cooper, A Bay Hunter & Groom In A Landscape

W.S. Cooper, A Bay Hunter & Groom In A LandscapeThis early 19th century oil painting by English artist W. S. Cooper (act. 1832 1834) depicts a bay hunter and groom in a landscape with a hunt beyond. Once hanging in a proud English country home, this splendid piece from 1832 represents the earliest known work by this little known artist. Its set under a dense sky and within an undulant landscape, punctuated by a wattle fence. Equestrian paintings of this nature were popular with the landed gentry
