注意事项

On occasion, Christie's has a direct financial interest in lots consigned for sale. This interest may include guaranteeing a minimum price to the consignor of property or making an advance to the consignor which is secured solely by consigned property. Such property is offered subject to a reserve. This is such a lot.

拍品专文

In the early 1850s Herring was much preoccupied with animals and their offspring and the resulting paintings were extremely popular. A series of nine aquatints titled The Mothers was issued by Fores of 41 Piccadilly in 1854 to 1855.

Herring exhibited a Mare and Foal at the Portland Gallery in 1854 as number 278, priced at thirty guineas.
