Hay Wagon & Horses Irish Rural Landscape Oil Paintings Equine Village Life Portraits

1900 - 1920
Description

A QUALITY HUGE SCALE OIL ON CANVAS BEAUTIFULLY PAINTED DEPICTING AN ELDERLY MAN STOPPING TO WATER HIS TWO THIRSTY HORSES PULLING A CANVAS TOP HAY CART

This is an interesting and colourful painting full of character and charm.

The scene is of a rural village which carefully captures life on the road back in 1928 pausing to water horses whilst travelling along a dirt road.

The gent wearing a cap, carries a full bucket of water from the nearby cast iron water pump.The canvas topped hay cart carries his supplies and a round bale of hay.

Note the horses attention being captured as they glance towards the reward they are about to receive.

There are two small thatched collages in the distance and colourful trees and foliage behind a stone block wall.

The artist has monogramed his initials in the bottom right hand corner,signing W.H.

The painting is also dated 1928.

CONDITION

The painting is in excellent condition throughout.

Past professional reline with light clean by restorers.

FRAMED MEASUREMENTS

Width 51 Inches ( 130 cm ) OR 4 ft. 3''

Height 40 Inches ( 102 cm ) OR 3 ft. 4''

I was very excited to be able to acquire this painting,and debated for quite a while about keeping it for myself.

A very unique painting in a class of its own showing rural village life.

Research continues to properly identify the artist who might be Irish.

This example is now 97 years old and yet looks as good as the day it was first painted,

due to past professional conservation work.

A very popular subject matter,which should attract all the horse lovers.

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.

Early 20th-century rural landscape oil paintings frequently focus on agricultural scenes, working animals, and country village life. These works typically feature realistic proportions, layered oil application, and naturalistic earth tones to document traditional pastoral settings.

Paintings from this period were executed using oil-based pigments applied onto stretched linen or cotton canvas backing. Frames were commonly manufactured from timber with moulded gesso detailing, finished in gold leaf or gilded bronze powder.

Authentic oil paintings demonstrate natural surface craquelure, subtle darkening of the varnish layer, and artist monograms or signatures. Examining the reverse typically reveals age-related discolouration of the canvas and historical framing hardware.

Position the artwork as a central focus above a mantelpiece or sideboard to anchor the room layout. Combining the gilded frame with neutral wall paint, natural timber furniture, and woven textiles creates a balanced composition.

Remove surface dust periodically using a soft, dry artist brush, avoiding liquid cleaners or abrasive cloths. Display the canvas away from direct sunlight, extreme humidity, and direct heat sources to prevent cracking and canvas tension loss.
