Bay Highland Pony - painted from my own archive of reference photos here in NE Scotland.
Tracing the history of the breed presents difficulties. In the earliest period of development of the domesticated breed, the two types were the small and light pony of the Western Isles, and the larger and heavier mainland-bred type. The larger animals were commonly called garrons, though the term is considered incorrect. Both types have integrated now, thus generally less distinction exists between the types within the Highland Pony breed. The breed was originally bred to work on the small farms of Scotland, hauling timber and game, as well as ploughing. The Highland Pony is still used for carrying stags off the rough terrain of Scottish glens and hills.

Unframed, unmounted but can be supplied framed at cost. Unframed to allow for easier postage. Standard sizing also means the painting can be easily framed.
