ABOUT HENRY BARRAUD b1811 - London-

( Artist Signed H.Barraud Lower Right Corner )

Born into an unusually talented family whose accomplishments included medicine, horology, photography and painting, Henry Barraud distinguished himself as a portraitist and a sporting artist.

He excelled in painting equestrian portraits and more general scenes, peopled with identifiable figures and numerous horses and hounds.

Henry was the younger brother of William (1810-1850), who was also an important sporting artist.

He studied with JJ Middleton, a portrait painter, who influenced the figurative aspect of his work.

The Barraud brothers shared a studio from 1835 until William’s death in 1850 and collaborated on many paintings. They also produced a book entitled Sketches of Figures and Animals published by H. Graves and Co. circa 1850.

Henry exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy from 1833 to 1859 and at the British Institution from 1831 to 1864.

FAQs

Nineteenth-century equine painting gained prominent popularity alongside the rise of British and European sporting culture. Artists focused on anatomical accuracy, portraying prized hunters, racehorses, and working animals in naturalistic stable yards or estate landscapes, frequently accompanied by hounds or domestic pets.

Artworks from this period were predominantly executed using hand-mixed oil pigments bound with linseed oil on stretched linen or cotton canvas. Frames were typically handcrafted from carved timber coated in gesso and finished with leaf gilded surfaces.

Authentic period oil paintings demonstrate natural age-related craquelure across the paint surface, subtle darkening of the original varnish, and oxidisation of the wooden canvas stretchers on the reverse. Inspection under ultraviolet light often reveals historic retouches or signatures.

Traditional sporting art creates a warm focal point when positioned above a mantlepiece, sideboard, or within a wood-panelled study. Layering historical oil paintings within contemporary or transitional interiors adds texture, heritage, and depth to modern colour palettes.

Keep canvas paintings away from direct sunlight, radiators, and areas of high humidity to prevent cracking and warp. Dust gently with a soft dry brush and consult a qualified fine art conservator for surface cleaning or revarnishing.
