JOHN FERNELEY. 



(Born 1815.) 



JOHN FERNELEY, eldest son of John E. 

 ^ Ferneley, was born in 1S15. His pictures 

 have merit, whether we consider them from the 

 artistic or sporting stand-point ; but they cannot be 

 compared with those of his father's. John Ferneley's 

 work is first mentioned in the Sporting Magazine : 

 vol. ci. of 1843, contains a plate engraved by J. H. 

 Engleheart, from the artist's portrait of Theon, 

 a dark brown horse by Emilius out of Maria, by 

 Whisker. The picture was painted for Mr. R. 

 Blacker, of Ripon, 1843. 



Two plates also appear in the Neiv Sporiitig 

 Magazine, in vol. v., 1833, viz.: — a portrait of 

 Robert Hunnum, Mr. Ralph John Lambton's first 

 whipper-in. This was painted by John Ferneley 

 from a large work by his father ; it was engraved 

 by W. Raddon. In vol. vii., 1834, we find a 

 portrait of Eglinton, a celebrated hunter belonging 

 to Mr. Ralph John Lambton, of Durham ; this 

 plate was engraved by Engleheart. 



Vol. ii. of the Sporting Review, 1839, also contains
