Landscape with Horse and a Goat is a 1750 unspecified by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a dark horse standing still in a field, with a small white goat lying on the ground nearby. Behind them, a bare tree and rolling hills fade into a soft, cloudy sky. The brushstrokes are loose, and the whole scene looks a little faded. The horse’s coat is painted in thick, shadowy strokes, making it stand out against the lighter background. The goat’s wool is rough-looking, almost like the artist quickly sketched it in. If you like this style, look up chiaroscuro next to see how light and shadow create drama in art.
