A portrait of a horse in a field, painted in a loose, painterly style. This oil on canvas is typical of the Barbizon School's emphasis on capturing the effects of light and atmosphere.
Constant Troyon, a French painter of the Barbizon School, is best known for his animal paintings. He initially focused on pure landscapes but, following the advice of his friend Camille Roqueplan, he introduced animals into his compositions. This shift proved successful, and Troyon became one of the most popular animal painters of his time. He received numerous awards and honours during his career. His work is characterised by a realistic yet sympathetic portrayal of animals, often set within pastoral scenes. Troyon's paintings are held in many major museum collections. This oil on canvas depicts a light-brown horse standing in a field. The horse has a pale mane and tail, with some white markings on its body. The background is a hazy mix of greens and blues, suggesting a field and sky. The brushwork is loose and painterly, typical of the Barbizon School's emphasis on capturing the effects of light and atmosphere. The horse is rendered with careful attention to its anatomy and musculature, conveying a sense of its physical presence.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
