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.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Victorian equine portraiture focused on capturing the anatomy, conformation, and character of horses, serving as both artistic studies and records of prized livestock for landowning patrons.

Artists predominantly used oil paint applied to woven linen canvas, supported by wooden stretcher bars and housed in carved or gilded wood frames.

Authentic works display natural surface craquelure, period-appropriate canvas weave, historical oxidisation on the stretcher wood, and brushwork consistent with 19th-century techniques.

Position the painting above a fireplace mantelpiece, console table, or within a library to create a grounded focal point that contrasts with modern furnishings.

Keep the painting away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity, dust gently with a dry soft brush, and consult an accredited restorer for varnish removal or conservation.
