About the piece

Painted in 1810 by James Ward, this work showcases the artist's renowned skill in animal anatomy and romantic landscape. A chestnut horse, identified as a 'hunter' in 19th-century sporting terms, is depicted in a moment of stillness, its powerful form contrasted against the delicate, hazy light of the English countryside.
