From the collection of Statens Museum for Kunst
Bacarolle is a 1850 by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This photo shows two men standing beside a brown horse in an indoor space. The man on the left wears a dark coat and stands straight, while the man on the right holds a cane and leans slightly on a wooden post. The horse has a shiny coat and stands on a bed of straw, with a plain wall and wooden beam behind them. The photo’s soft lighting makes the horse’s muscles stand out. The men’s faces are calm, and the setting looks like a stable or barn. Next, check out the technique: chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create depth.
