English Romantic Painter, 1769-1859 English painter and engraver. He was the most important animal painter of his generation. Many of his dynamic compositions depict horses, dogs or wild animals in agitated emotional states, the sense of movement being reinforced by vigorous brushwork and strong colours. With their sweeping landscapes and dramatic skies, his canvases epitomize Romanticism. Not content to excel merely as an animal painter, Ward also produced portraits, landscapes and genre and history paintings of varying quality.  Related Paintings of James Ward :. | Portrait of the Rev | Hereford Bull with Sheep by a Haystack | Group portrait of John | The Levett Children | Gordale Scat,Yorkshire (mk22) |
