Horace Hammond (1842-1926) Orginal Watercolour Pheasant Shoot Scene

Horace Hammond (1842-1926) Watercolour framed and glaze Gun Dogs, Horse and Hunter 43 x 58 Signed H. Hammond Excellent condition with no fading £100 John Barclay was a pseudonym used by the Birmingham artist and illustrator Horace Hammond. His subjects were rural scenes in watercolour, often featuring cottages, figures, and animals. Horace Hammond also painted for a local dealer under the name of A.D. Bell and some paintings thus signed are often confused with Barclay’s work. The decorative subject matter and precise style of the 'J. Barclay' pictures have resulted in the work becoming increasingly popular. They are not dissimilar stylistically to Birket Foster. As Hammond, he exhibited at the RA, RBSA and Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool.
