About this work

This painting shows a white horse standing in a barn. The horse faces left, with its head turned back toward the viewer. A man sits on the floor to the left, holding a bundle of twigs. He wears a red jacket and white apron. The barn has a wooden floor and walls, with a window high up on the back wall. Through the window, we see a field and trees under a blue sky with white clouds. The artist, 2708_person, used chiaroscuro to create strong contrasts between light and dark.
