"Terriers Ratting" is a notable painting by the 19th-century British artist George Armfield, who is renowned for his depictions of animals, particularly dogs. Armfield, whose full name was George Armfield Smith, was born in 1808 and became one of the most celebrated animal painters of his time. His works are characterized by their lively and dynamic compositions, as well as their meticulous attention to detail and realistic portrayal of animal behavior.

"Terriers Ratting" exemplifies Armfield's skill in capturing the spirited nature of dogs. The painting typically features a group of terriers engaged in the act of ratting, a common rural activity in which dogs were used to hunt and kill rats. This subject matter not only highlights the working relationship between humans and dogs but also showcases the agility and tenacity of the terriers.

Armfield's ability to convey movement and emotion in his animal subjects is evident in "Terriers Ratting." The dogs are often depicted in mid-action, with their muscles tensed and expressions focused, creating a sense of immediacy and excitement. The background elements, though secondary to the main action, are rendered with enough detail to provide context without detracting from the primary focus on the dogs.

The painting reflects the Victorian era's fascination with animal sports and the rural lifestyle, offering a glimpse into the period's cultural and social practices. Armfield's work, including "Terriers Ratting," remains highly regarded for its artistic merit and its contribution to the genre of animal painting. Today, his paintings are sought after by collectors and continue to be appreciated for their historical and aesthetic value.
