Claude Cardon was born in 1864 to Samuel James Clark and his wife Maria Thornton. He was born into the Clark family of artists, his father, known as Samuel Joseph Clark (1841–1928), was a landscape and animal painter and his grandfather James Clark (1812–84) was a well-known animal painter. The family lived in Islington and Cardon was taught to paint by his father. Like other members of his family, he painted animals, specializing in rural farm scenes often depicting calves, chickens, pigs and sheep. In 1888, Cardon married Lottie Maud Whetstone and together they lived in Islington. By 1892, he had started using the pseudonym of Claude Cardon and began exhibiting at the Royal Academy under this name. He also exhibited at the Royal Society of British Artists, the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool and the Manchester City Art Gallery. He moved to Camden in 1895, where he worked out of a studio until around 1911, when he had settled in Whitstable, Kent. Cardon spent his final years in Kent, where he died on 20 January 1937 at no. 79 Canterbury Road, Whitstable.

The Farrier’s Visit, in a farmyard landscape early 20th century
Located in Woodbury, CT
Francis Mabel Hollams (1877–1963) The Farrier’s Visit, circa 1925 Oil on canvas, monogrammed lower right. Presented in its original gilt frame. Francis Mabel Hollams was one of Britain’s most accomplished painters of horses and domestic animals during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A gifted sporting artist, she studied under the distinguished equestrian painter Lucy Kemp-Welch and went on to establish a successful career exhibiting at London’s foremost institutions, including the Royal Academy, the Royal Institute of Oil Painters, the Royal Society of British Artists and the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. Her paintings are celebrated for their exceptional draughtsmanship, sensitive observation and genuine understanding of animal character, qualities that have secured her place among the finest female sporting artists of her generation. The Farrier’s Visit beautifully encapsulates the quiet rhythms of rural England during the years when the working horse remained indispensable to everyday agricultural life. Hollams depicts a magnificent grey Shire horse standing patiently outside a traditional brick stable as the village farrier carefully replaces one of its shoes. The scene is entirely unforced and deeply authentic, celebrating the mutual trust between horse and craftsman, a relationship forged through generations of skilled husbandry. The monumental presence of the Shire horse dominates the composition, yet Hollams avoids sentimentality, instead conveying its immense strength through calm composure and gentle dignity. Every detail, from the worn leather harness to the weathered stable doors and simple blacksmith’s tools...
