EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil on canvas painting by James Pollard takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Clerkenwell, London. Titled "Schooling a Pair in a Brake at Lucass Yard" the artwork showcases a scene of horse and carriage training at Lucas's Yard. The artist skillfully captures the energy and movement of this Victorian era coaching session. A pair of magnificent horses are being schooled within the confines of an archway, their powerful bodies straining against the reins as they learn to navigate through obstacles with precision. The setting itself is richly detailed, depicting a stable filled with other carriages waiting their turn for training. The architectural elements add depth to the composition, with an ornate arch framing the action and drawing our eyes towards the focal point. Pollard's masterful brushstrokes bring life to every element in this painting - from the sleek coats of the horses to the worn wooden beams supporting Lucas's Yard. It is evident that he had a deep understanding and appreciation for both equine beauty and human ingenuity. Displayed at Yale Center for British Art as part of Paul Mellon Collection, this artwork serves as a testament to Britain's rich equestrian history. It invites us into a world where horse-drawn coaches were not just means of transportation but also symbols of elegance and power. Through "Schooling a Pair in a Brake at Lucass Yard". Pollard immortalizes an important aspect of Victorian society while showcasing his own artistic prowess.
