About the piece

Painted in 1809 by James Ward, this equestrian portrait captures 'Eagle,' a celebrated stallion, with remarkable anatomical precision. The horse's powerful form is set against a dramatic backdrop of rolling hills and a luminous, cloud-swept sky, embodying the dignity and spirit of 19th-century British sporting art.
