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.

Victorian equine painting focused on realistic representations of horses, often commissioned by patrons to record prized hunters, racehorses, or working stock. Artists such as Henry Barraud depicted fine anatomical details, set within functional stable interiors or countryside landscapes, reflecting British equestrian culture.

Paintings from this era were primarily executed using oil pigments mixed with natural drying oils on stretched linen or cotton canvas. Frames were constructed from timber with applied plaster or composition moulding, subsequently finished with gold leaf gilding.

Authentic period paintings show subtle age signs including natural craquelure across the paint surface, surface oxidisation on the varnish layer, and timber stretcher bar impressions visible from behind. Original gilding on the frame typically displays gentle wear exposing the underlying bole or plaster layer.

An equestrian oil portrait acts as a focal point above a fireplace mantle or a timber sideboard. Pairing the gilded frame with neutral wall colours or dark panelling creates visual contrast and anchors traditional or eclectic room designs.

Keep the canvas away from direct sunlight, excess moisture, and direct heat sources to prevent cracking or warping. Dust the frame and surface gently with a soft dry brush, avoiding liquid cleaners or abrasive materials that damage historic varnish layers.
