Foxhall Thoroughbred – Henry Stull Chromolithograph, 1881
A refined 1881 chromolithograph after Henry Stull, depicting the celebrated thoroughbred Foxhall with jockey mounted, shown in profile against an open landscape. The composition is measured and precise, emphasizing the horse’s conformation and calm authority, a hallmark of Stull’s equestrian portraiture.
Foxhall was among the most accomplished American racehorses of the late 19th century, achieving major victories in both France and England, including the Grand Prix de Paris and Ascot Gold Cup. Works by Stull are central to American sporting art, and this example captures the period’s documentary approach to elite racing subjects.
Original 1881 chromolithograph of the racehorse Foxhall by Henry Stull, one of the leading American painters of thoroughbred horses in the 19th century. The composition presents the horse and rider in a classic side profile, typical of formal equestrian portraiture.
Antique horse racing prints of notable champions remain highly collectible, particularly those tied to international victories. Stull’s work is well regarded among collectors of sporting art and equestrian history.
