About the piece

Painted around 1910, this oil work by Alfred Munnings captures the raw strength and quiet dignity of draft horses at work. The dramatic contrast between the warm tones of the horses and the cool, vertical rhythms of the forest creates a sense of deep immersion in the rural landscape.
