This impressive oil painting shows the portrait of a Lippizaner stallion with a splendid bridle from the Spanish Riding School. The fine details of the horse's head are masterfully captured - from the pointed ears to the expressive eye and the fine hairs of the nostrils. The horse's white coat is depicted with nuance, giving the picture depth and vibrancy. The contrast between the light-coloured coat and the black bridle, which has been painted precisely and in great detail, is particularly striking. The background is in warm, light beige and soft orange tones, with vertical stripes that give the picture a soft, atmospheric quality. This simple design directs the focus entirely onto the majestic animal. The painting style combines realistic details with a touch of impressionism. This lends the work a timeless elegance. Overall, the painting radiates grace and power.
