One of a set of four pencil drawings, 'Stampede of Horses,' was produced in 1898 when the artist, Brian Hatton, was aged ten years. On the reverse of the frame it is recorded that 'Stampede of Horses' was awarded a gold star at the Royal Drawing Society's annual competition in 1897. The gold star was awarded by HRH Princess Louise who was the president of the RDS. Princess Louise was Queen Victoria's fourth daughter. Although he was aged only 10 years when he created this drawing, the artist's ability to capture, with his pencil, the fluid movements of these horses, is already evident.
