EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Horses Hindquarters" a mesmerizing oil on canvas painting by Theodore Gericault. The artwork, measuring 74x81 cm, is part of a private collection and falls under the category of French art that is now out of copyright. In this composition, Gericault skillfully captures the rear view of several horses with meticulous attention to detail. The artist's focus on rears and anatomy allows viewers to appreciate the beauty and strength found in these majestic creatures. The bay and chestnut colors add depth and variety to the study, while their dappled coats create an enchanting visual effect. The tails elegantly cascade down from behinds that are expertly rendered, showcasing Gericault's mastery in capturing equine form. These horses appear stabled, as indicated by the presence of blankets draped over their hindquarters. Each horse represents a different breed - from piebald to skewbald - adding diversity to this stunning portrayal. Gericault's work not only appeals to art enthusiasts but also attracts those interested in animal anatomy or wildlife studies. This painting serves as a testament to his skills as both an artist and anatomist, highlighting his ability to capture animals' essence through brushstrokes. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece for all admirers of fine art who seek inspiration from nature's most magnificent creations – horses.
