I really love the look of the old English horse paintings from the 1700s, the type that were done as portraits of people's horses to show their conformation. I know George Stubbs is one such artist, but does anyone know the names of others, or know of a website that sells prints of that style of painting?
Other examples of what I'm going for are the paintings of the godolphin arabain, darley arabian, byerly turk, etc, but I can't figure out the name of the artists who painted those. But that's sort of what I'm going for.
I'd prefer to find the type that just has the horse standing in a stable yard, or perhaps with a groom, but not with riders.
Anyone know where I can buy some? Or some artists names to help my search? Or what that sort of painting is referred to?
