Framed Prints
Framed Print of Shetland Ponies purchased for the Pacha of Egypt, 1850. Creators: Harrison Weir, Benjamin Herring
Shetland Ponies purchased for the Pacha of Egypt, 1850. These eight ponies (three brown, and five black) have lately been sold to the agent of the Pacha of Egypt, by Mr. Orton, of 69, Wapping [London]...they are 35 inches in height, and their companions do not exceed 37 inches. Their present value is about £15 each. They were imported by the mail packet to Aberdeen, and thence by steamer to London. Mr. Orton is breaking these ponies in harness, and drives them in fours every day; they are intended for the Pacha's children to drive-six in a small carriage...The ponies are rough at present, but they will be got into better condition before they are shipped, towards the close of the present month. The Pacha's agent is, we understand, a German veterinary surgeon, and Master of the Horse to his Highness'. From Illustrated London News, 1850.
