Edgar Hunt Sold at Auction Prices

Animal painter, Bird painter, Painter

Born in Birmingham in 1876, artist Edgar Hunt had no formal artistic training but instead was tutored by his father who was an art teacher. Influenced by his brother Walter, also an artist, he painted realistic depictions of farm animals. Many of Edgar Hunt's artworks for sale are meticulously detailed paintings of poultry living on his own farm.

Artist Edgar Hunt rarely exhibited his work, but he did show 11 of his animal paintings at the Royal Society of Artists in Birmingham. Due to the Industrial Revolution, many rural workers had moved to urban areas to prosper and missed the simplicity and beauty of farm life; as a result, Edgar Hunt's paintings became increasingly popular and sold extremely well.

        Edgar Hunt, British 1876-1953- Five chicks by a basket; oil on canvas, signed and dated 'E Hunt. 1908' (lower left), 25.5 x 30.5 cm. ARR. Provenance: Anon. sale, Christie's, London, 23 May, 1952, lot 174 (sold for �3 3s 0d [3gns]).; An important Private Collection, UK. Note: Typical of Hunt�s output, the present work offers an endearing image of turn of the century rural life. The small scale emphasises the close attention which Hunt brings to each chick in the farmyard, placing a significance on these animals which are often overlooked, and encouraging the viewer to consider them with the same interest and sympathy as is evidently afforded by the artist. Hunt�s pictures are defined by their palpable sense of serenity and calm, with his animals co-existing in an idealised harmony.�For a similar work by the artist and with comparable dimensions, see Anon. sale, Bonhams, London, 13 November 2018, lot 49 �A family of ducks at the stream�.
