David Dalby of York was one of many painters in a very prominent Yorkshire family in England. He was particularly talented at painting animals, particularly in hunting and racing scenes and equestrian portraits.

His style was highly accurate, and gave a polished and finished perception, and he realized the height of his talents in the 1820’s. Art critics have noted that Dalby must have been a very good huntsman and rider himself, because the way that his subjects are seated on horseback in his compositions is reflective of thorough knowledge of equestrian sport.

Some time between 1815 and 1826, it is thought that Dalby moved from York to Leeds, only to eventually return to York. During this time, he married and had two children, one of which, his son, would grow up to be a painter as well. Dalby’s life and career as an artist was cut short when he died at the relatively young age of 42. It is not likely that he painted many landscape, still life or portraits, though it is always possible that a few of these types of paintings could exist by Dalby’s hand.

In comparison to many other painters at the time, Dalby did not leave many engravings of his paintings behind. He is buried at the St. Michael Le Belfry Church in York, and his work is housed in England at the Scarborough Art Gallery.
