The Fairman Rogers Four-in-Hand
''The Fairman Rogers Four-in-Hand'' (originally titled ''A May Morning in the Park'') is an 1879-80 painting by Thomas Eakins. It shows Fairman Rogers driving a coaching party in his four-in-hand carriage through Philadelphia's Fairmount Park. It is thought to be the first painting to examine precisely, through systematic photographic analysis, how horses move.〔Siegl, p. 76.〕
''The Fairman Rogers Four-in-Hand'' is in the permanent collection of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
==Rogers==
Eakins taught at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, where Rogers was a Board member and chairman of the Committee on Instruction. Rogers recruited Eakins back to the Academy in 1878 and commissioned the painting from his new instructor.〔Goodrich, v. 1, pp. 171–73.〕
Independently wealthy, Rogers was a civil engineer and retired professor at the University of Pennsylvania. He was an avid coaching enthusiast, founder of the Philadelphia Coaching Club and author of the still-definitive guide to the sport: ''A Manual of Coaching'' (Philadelphia: 1900).〔(New York Times obituary, August 24, 1900 )〕 In the painting, Eakins combined Rogers's love of science with his love of coaching.
