A collectible Border Fine Arts figurine titled “Emergency Rations, ” from the sought-after James Herriot Studio Collection, sculpted by Alan Ayres. This detailed composition portrays a traditional winter farming scene, where a farmer distributes emergency feed to sheep from a sled, assisted by a harnessed horse and a working dog. The piece reflects the storytelling style associated with the James Herriot series, capturing the realities of rural British life with authenticity and character. Expertly crafted in hand-painted resin and mounted on a solid wooden plinth, the sculpture features fine detailing throughout-from the textured hay and snow base to the naturalistic animal forms and clothing of the farmer. The base is signed “Ayres, ” confirming the sculptor. Condition is excellent, with no chips, cracks, or restorations. All elements are intact and well preserved. Approximate width: 37 cm. A strong collector’s piece from a respected series, offering both decorative appeal and solid resale demand within the Border Fine Arts market.
