19th Century Engraving of Filho Da Puta by J.F. Herring Snr
-
Description
Presenting a fabulous and very rare, original early 19th century engraving after a painting by John Frederick Herring Snr…………….engraved by M. Sutherland….circa 1815-1820.
This original engraving is of “Filho Da Puta” ….”The Winner of the Great St. Leger at Doncaster, 1815” shown with his victorious rider/jockey…John Jackson.
The engraving reports that of the 1815 St. Leger...there were 59 Subscribers of which 15 started.
Filho Da Puta's breeding is recorded on the print as being "By Haphazard out of Mrs. Barnett by Waxy'.
The Owner of Filho da Puta is recorded as " The Property of Sir W. Maxwell Bar.T'".
"To Whom this Print by permission is most respectfully dedicated by the Publishers.... S & J Fuller".
"London published by S. & J. Fuller, at their Sporting Gallery, 34 Rathbone Place ".
"Painted by Mr. Herring, Doncaster ".
This Aquantint beautifully captures the Winning Horse and Jockey that were victorious in the 1815 running of the St. Leger Stakes at Newmarket by John Frederick Herring, Sr.., one of Great Britain's most renown sporting artists who did commissioned work for the Duchess of Kent and Queen Victoria. Herring's Original aquatint, hand-colored prints are EXTREMELY POPULAR and HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER.
Condition is consistent with it's age and is superb for it's age.
The engraving has been professionally framed in a dark walnut frame, with acid free matting and backing. Silver edging on the internal matte surround. The frame has anti-glare glass. The framing alone cost over $1,000.
We would not recommend any restoration to this print.
We are of the opinion that this is an original engraving. It was in the same 'lot' as an original 'Proof' engraving of 'Foig-a-Ballagh' by Herring (also in our Collection). It was originally acquired in Ireland in the 1960s.
Provenance: Bought from a Collector in Kentucky. - More Information
