About the piece

Painted in 1775 by British animal painter Sawrey Gilpin, this oil painting depicts three 'hunters'—horses bred for cross-country riding—standing in a rugged landscape. Gilpin was celebrated for his anatomical precision and ability to imbue animal portraits with a sense of character and atmospheric depth, as seen here in the soft, misty treatment of the sky and cliffs.
