拍品专文

Stephen Pearce was born at the King's Mews in Charing Cross, the son of an official in the department of the master of the horse. He exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1839, becoming well known for his equestrian portraits and groups as well as for his portraiture. Pearce painted equestrian portraits of many Masters of Foxhounds, and the present group relate to one of these commissions for a Cottesmore master.
