Colour-printed aquatint by Charles Hunt, finished by hand and highlighted with gum arabic. Printed on heavy wove paper. A nice impression with lovely colour. Expert repairs to margins. Image size: 12 1/2 x 16 5/8 inches. A magnificent portrait of the celebrated Derby-winner Coronation by Herring, one of the most acclaimed sporting artists of the nineteenth century. Herring is an outstanding and imaginative artist who at an early age showed an aptitude for handling both riding whip and pencil. At a young age, fate took Herring to the Doncaster races where he saw the Duke of Hamilton's horse, William, win the St. Leger. The sight inspired him to attempt the art of animal-painting, in which he subsequently excelled. In addition to being a successful horse painter, Herring made his livelihood as a coachman, and for some time drove the Highflyer coach between London and York. When eventually he retired as a coachman he immediately obtained numerous commissions and was able to devote himself entirely to his art. Herring had no education in art until he definitely set up as an artist, when he worked for a short time in the studio of Abraham Cooper, R.A. He painted an immense number of racing, coaching, and other sporting subjects, many of which were published by the sporting printsellers and the sporting magazines. He was a frequent exhibitor at the Royal Academy and the Society of British Artists; he was elected a member of the latter society in 1841. While in later life he painted a number of subject-pictures, it was as a portrait-painter of racehorses that Herring earned his fame, and no great breeder or owner of racehorses is without some treasured production of Herring's brush.

Two subscriber's proofs, with title and text in both French and English, aquatint engravings, part-printed in colours à la poupée, and finished with fine original hand-colouring, heightened with gum-arabic, each c.530 x 730 mm., framed and glazed. This dramatic pair amply captures the excitement of this famous race, when the four finest race horses bred in France at the time were pitted against each other over two and a half miles, in three heats. The eventual winner was the 5 year old Rocquencourt, by Logic out of Contrition, owned by the Duc d'Orléans, to whom the prints are dedicated by the publisher, John Moore. Rocquencourt won two of the three heats, in the process achieving the fastest time then recorded for a French horse over the distance, of 4 minutes and 42 seconds. He beat Oakstick, belonging to Lord Seymour, Vendredi, owned by Baron de Rothschild, and M. de Saran's horse, Quine. All four are depicted here in full flight in the first plate, where we also see the crowd of gentry and nobility being entertained by acrobats and other side shows, and at the finishing line in front of the grand stand, the moment when Rocquefort won the last heat by a neck. Charles Hunt (1803-1877) is a very familiar name to collectors in the hugely popular field of sporting prints, here engaged by one of the most prominent publishers of such prints, John Moore, to translate the combined work of the landscape artist, George Bryant Campion (1795-1870), and one of the century's finest portrait painters of horses, John Frederick Herring Snr. (1795-1865).
