William Woodhouse (1857-1939)
"Bay Horse in a Stable with Three Setters"
Watercolour on paper, mounted and presented in a gilt frame

An exquisite antique watercolor painting by renowned British animal painter William Woodhouse, known for his lifelike depictions of horses, dogs, and rural scenes. This work features a dignified bay horse standing in a rustic stable, accompanied by three setters, rendered with remarkable sensitivity and detail.
The painting is mounted and presented in a classic gilt frame, enhancing its traditional charm and making it ready for display in any period or sporting art collection.

The artist's mastery of anatomy and expression is evident in the relaxed posture of the dogs and the calm, noble demeanor of the horse. Soft natural light filters into the stable, highlighting the rich textures of the animals' coat. Woodhouse's delicate brushwork and subtle colour palette evoke a timeless pastoral atmosphere, reflecting the deep connection between working animals and country life.

A beautiful and atmospheric composition that showcases Woodhouse's celebrated skill in capturing the spirit and harmony of rural England.
