About the piece

Painted around 1825 by British artist Edmund Bristow, this oil on canvas captures the noble form of a bay horse in profile. The subject is set against an atmospheric landscape typical of the period, featuring rolling hills and a dramatic, clouded sky that adds depth and a sense of quiet movement to the composition.
