About the piece
Created in 1789 by George Garrard, this oil painting is a masterful example of British animal portraiture. The scene depicts a muscular bay horse being approached by a stable-lad carrying a halter and a bowl of food, while a small terrier trots nearby. The atmospheric, wooded background and the pop of the lad's red coat create a timeless composition perfect for traditional or heritage-inspired interiors.
